Sarah Dooley - Shadows lyrics

[Verse 1] Walking home and it is cold December Wind makes your hair silly And my eyes tear up I'm on tiptoes You are so tall Taller than my bedroom Up the stairs and we have to keep quiet Little brother's sleeping And I bend down to kiss his cheek And I see your shadow Shadow in the doorway And my shadow at the bed [Pre-Chorus] Our shadows are husband and wife And they kiss in the middle of the night And once we step back into the light [Chorus] There is a sea between us And we eat ice cream And we don't say a word We don't say a word to anyone [Verse 2] Living room and this is where the night ends There's a silence and you're uncomfortable You stand up and I start to shiver Shivering at midnight We're alone and we are in the moonlight It appears just perfect But we don't take note No we don't wait Stand at an arms length Honey colored porch lights And you don't take my hand [Pre-Chorus] But somewhere our shadows are sleeping Tucked up in a marital bed But we stand apart Waiting for the second hand to change [Chorus] There is a sea between us And we eat ice cream And we don't say a word We don't say a word to anyone [Bridge] Who knows when we'll figure out Who knows when we find out what we're talking about Cause we don't have money And we don't have a car Credit history is just subpar No one knows exactly who we are No one in the back knows In back knows [Chorus] There is a sea between us And we eat ice cream And we don't say a word We don't say a word Cause we're afraid that it won't be heard We don't say a word Cause we're afraid that it won't be heard Da-da-da-da-da-da-da-dum Da-da-da-da-da-da-da-dum Da-da-da-da-da-da-da-dum
