Lyrics for Salt and Shadow
The sky took its cue Every color and hue on display 'Til thick veils of indigo signaled the end of the day But each landscape that lies in the mirror of your eyes turns to grey Ooh, ooh Ooh, ooh On the edge of a knife's Like your living your life on the stage You're talking through glass Would you swear photographs on a page Oh we're never alone but we're each in our own little cage Ooh, ooh You're here but it's clear You're just salt and shadow Here half a world away You're here but you're nearly a hologram Here, still so far away Ooh, ooh Ooh, ooh You manage to hide even here by my side where we lay Here in this bed where I sense every thread start to fray And I feel our skin touch but there's only so much you can say You're here but it's clear You're just salt and shadow Here half a world away You're here but you're nearly a hologram Here, still so far away Ooh, ooh Ooh, ooh Ooh, ooh Ooh, ooh You're here but it's clear You're just salt and shadow Here half a world away You're here but it's clear You're just salt and shadow Here half a world away
