Just when I return to me
I look away to other things and I never know why
What's to be in this realm of impossibilities?
Here in the dark under the edge of night
Call it a day, or the defining moment of this life
They're one and the same
Shadows and dreams
Just when I return to me
I look away to other things and I never know why
In the Spring and into fall
I make my plans, forsake them all, and I never know why
A vial of pills and endless sessions in this chair
We sort through the empty chapters of this life
Did I miss a page, or the defining silence whispered there?
They're one and the same, shadows and dreams
Just when I return to me
I look away to other things and I never know why
In the Spring and into fall
I make my plans, forsake them all, and I never know why
Well don't let them stop ya but life is an opera
One you never really understand
Til you're standing on a stage with a painted face and realize you can't sing like Andrea Bocelli
From the belly ya know? You open mouth and nothing comes out
People are laughin' and people are gaspin'
You're caught in between your shadows and dreams
I sogni di ombre e le ombre nell sogni
Sempre nel mio mondo, svegliati!
(ombre e sogni, ombre e sogni...)
Papers hanging in the frame on walls that reek of hate and blame and I
never know why
(perso nelle ombre!)
Years of work and sacrifice still find me short on good advice and I never know why
Just when I return to me
I look away to other things and I never know why
In the Spring and into fall
I make my plans, forsake them all, and I never know why
(ombre e sogni)
