dance of shadows

shallow shadows take me

flicker to a light

begging me to dance

come in closer feel the night

twirling for the moon

shivering in the wind

whirling through the atmosphere

a body of water so clear

waving to the crickets the june bugs and cicadas

fire under the stars

as above and so below

come on down to thank us

for a glorious and graceful show

we don't even have a chance

but u should have made a way

its not that im pretending

i knew it all along

that visions would start creeping

when i turned up the song

oh night so strange

u make me move so slowly dear

from drowsiness and fear

hear the heartbeat 

stay on your feet

don't move

here it comes

the dance of shadows

bow to Father Time 

for bringing us the sun
