SHADOWS OF TALL BUILDINGS
WRITTEN BY: THE RESCUES
I’LL NEVER LEARN MY LESSON
I MUMBLE DOWN THE STREET
I MAKE A FAINT IMPRESSION
CAUSE I AM INCOMPLETE
I TRIED TO BE THERE
IN THE OPEN
I TRIED TO MAKE YOU PROUD
I WILL WALK THROUGH SHADOWS OF TALL BUILDINGS
UNTIL I SLOWLY DISAPPEAR
MAKE MYSELF UP FOR TOURISTS
AND JOIN THE LIVING DEAD
THERE’S NO MORE ROOM FOR PURISTS
MY BLUES WILL TURN TO RED
I TRIED TO BE THERE
IN THE OPEN
I TRIED TO MAKE YOU PROUD
I (HER COLORS ON THE SIDEWALK)
WILL WALK (HER LIPS WILL MOVE BUT THEY WON’T TALK)
THROUGH SHADOWS (SO I’M TRYING TO UNCOVER)
OF TALL BUILDINGS (THE STILLNESS OF MY LOVER)
UNTIL THERE’S NO (AND IN HER SKYWARD REACHES)
THING MORE (I KNOW THERE’S NOTHING MORE)
TO FEAR
