Shadow Land
Everytime the tide comes in the tide goes out Some folks fail some do alright You could take a johnboat all the way to town Had an angry broken father, in a house beside the water CHORUS: Shadowland, what secret are you keeping Are you only sleepin to wake another day Shadowland, Oh how could I have loved you I never really knew you, anyway Funny how the stars down there shine so bright Breeze comes in just like a prayer Mama asked Jesus to keep Daddy home at night I guess it was a pity, but Jesus never did it BRIDGE: Storms blew up from Mexico, the boats would all come in Nights like that you could smell salt water on the wind I was so young back then Brother was a gifted child so they said We could build a starship in the yard Angry voices came from the house at night So we'd play a game he made up And stay out a little later From Letras Mania
