Sister Shadow lyrics
Words and music by Roddy Frame
Here she comes now sister in shadow
Lights up my day til there s no tomorrow
Almond eyes set in olive skin,
Betray the anger burnin white within
There she goes dumbin down for them all
And speakin in code when sufferin is calling
When the city s steppin out to play
She cuts a dash in tenement grey
Her memory lingers then fades and turns to black
Slippin through my fingers, shiftin shape and doublin back
What you gonna do when the bells are ringin
Happiness and joy and the birds are singin
For you Sister Shadow and it s all so dutiful
Where you gonna go when the city is swingin
Really reelin and you re feelin like it s so unreal
Sweet, sweet nothings loud and clear, Sister Shadow
Here she comes now Sister of Shiva
Dark destroyer, holy deceiver
I feel her rising as you re drawing near
Look in your eyes I see her shadow appear
Love is blind, it s a one way twistin track
She s always behind me but there s no turnin back
What you gonna do when the bells are ringin
Happiness and joy and the birds are singin
For you Sister Shadow and it s all so dutiful
Where you gonna go when the city is swingin
Really reelin and you re feelin like it s so unreal
Sweet, sweet nothings loud and clear, Sister Shadow
