Levellers - Shadow On The Sun Lyrics
|
|
We've been singing since the morning
|
'til the setting of the sun
|
We sing of everything forever
|
'cause we've been going for so long.
|
We sing the heart of the cold song
|
Ever since we started the only one.
|
|
It's got words that bring us heaven
|
It's got words that give us hell
|
It's got tunes that shine like diamonds
|
And vicious notes as well
|
It's the feel of warm rain
|
The song of forever the unbroken chain
|
|
|
CHORUS
|
There's a shadow on the sun
|
That used to shine so brightly
|
For some it all goes wrong
|
Who refuse to step lightly
|
There's a break in the clouds
|
Let the cold sun on me
|
Like the new born doubt
|
That nothing's ever gonna be free.
|
|
It tells the sentiment of growing
|
And a tale of lonely death
|
It says everything worth knowing
|
'Til you draw another breath.
|
Hear the clouds ring on
|
The song of forever the only one,
|
|
CHORUS
|
|
And it gets me like nothing gets me
|
Then it throws me right back down.
|
It holds me then it chokes me
|
As it lays me on the ground.
|
|
|
Some will write a new line
|
then some will pass in on
|
Some just sing the same verse
|
But most will get it wrong
|
Play the heart of a cold song
|
Ever since we started the only one.
|
|
|
CHORUS
|
|
|
OUTRO:
|
That's the heart of a cold song
|
We sing the heart of the cold song
|
Thats the heart of all songs
|
Thats the heart of a cold song.
