Shadows

from Inside Outside by Karen Hunter

/

about

Recorded live at the Temple bar, Queen St, Auckland, New Zealand in 1999.

lyrics

Inner city traffic lights, A baby in her arms
She stands before me, Her eye (looks) right through me
Sets off an alarm
It was you, that baby had your face
Wide-eyed innocence, hungry to taste
All of life’s challenges

So you live in the babies at the traffic lights
You're getting smaller and smaller
Soon you're out of sight
Soon you might live in the kittens
Then you might live in mice
In the leaves in the petals in the particles of light

My heart remembers you
But my mind has long let go of wanting to
So hold your dreams and sing your songs
I can say thank you now that you're gone
Here is my freedom song

There are shadows, shadows of feelings
Like there are shadows in light
But here comes the sun
Shining bright
