Chasing Shadows (rev)

Chasing shadows, over my walls

with myself hardly sleeping

Dwarfs and giants, twenty feet tall

fill the room with their creeping

Sounds of breathing sharpen my ears

then they fade into nothing

Someone's laughter out in the street

fills the night with their loving

I feel the ice in my head

Running its hands through my bed

Not even dreaming I seem to be dead

Colours of yellow and colours of red

All I'm asking some secret voice

is to lead me to darkness

I'm so tired, dawn never comes

I just hide in the shadows

Deep Purple

Blind

I see reflections in the water

Autumn colors, summer's daughter

And as the year is growing older

I see winter on my shoulder

I stand in the haze

Watching stone-made ripples grow

On my own

Never knew you were needed

Till I found myself standing here alone

 

 

And in the water, such a sad face

Slowly drowning, such a sad face

If only I could change the seasons

Like a poet, I've my reasons

It started to snow in the middle of July

Wonder why

Never did understand you

My sorrow is hanging in the Grey sky

 

 

In the summer days we flew to the sun

On melting wings

But the seasons change so fast

Leave us all behind

Blind

Deep Purple

Chasing Shadows

Chasing shadows, over my walls

with myself hardly sleeping

Dwarfs and giants, twenty feet tall

fill the room with their creeping

Sounds of breathing sharpen my ears

then they fade into nothing

Someone's laughter out in the street

fills the night with their loving

I feel the ice in my head

Running its hands through my bed

Not even dreaming I seem to be dead

Colours of yellow and colours of red

All I'm asking some secret voice

is to lead me to darkness

I'm so tired, dawn never comes

I just hide in the shadows

Deep Purple
