A Thousand Shadows Lyrics - Singles As & Bs 1965-1970 - Seeds

(Sky Saxon/Daryl Hooper/Jan Savage) 

Lost in your dreams... 

(I did it all for her, my flower child) 

Lost in your dreams 

Said the ride's so long and the nights so black 

A thousand shadows can never look back 

You're flying off toward an isle of dreams 

And now you're lost, and lonely it seems 

Said there's a dreammaker in every corner 

JUst waitin' to weave a web of sin 

Said better watch yourself, little girl 

I said better keep away from him 

I said the rides so long and the night's so black 

A thousand shadows can never turn back 

CHORUS 

I said, run, little girl just as fast as you can 

Run like the wind 

Said, run, little girl just as fast as you can 

Run away from him ahhhhhhhh 

I lost the heart I had before 

And now my spirit can't cross the door 

Oh what can I do, I made a mistake 

But know I know, I know it's too late 

I said ah ah ahhhh 

I've tried so hard, now I'm lost again 

I didn't listen to what they say 

And now I'm losing, I've lost my way 

The road so black and the night's so dark 

A thousand shadows can never turn back 

I said ah ah ahhhh 

The ride, the ride, the ride's so long 

The night, the night, the night's so black 

Ah ah ah ah child child child child child
