Shadowplay (Letra)

Curso de Violão - Fórmula Violão

To the center of the city where all roads meet,
waiting for you
To the depths of the ocean where all hopes sank,
searching for you
I was moving through the silence without motion,
waiting for you
In a room without a window in the corner I found truth

In the shadowplay acting out your own death,
knowing no more
As the assassins all grouped in four lines,
dancing on the floor
And with cold steel, odour on their bodies made a move to connect
I could only stare in disbelief
as the crowds all left

I did everything, everything I wanted to
I let them use you for their own ends
To the center of the city in the night, waiting for you
To the center of the city in the night, waiting for you

Shadowplay (Letra)

Curso de Violão - Fórmula Violão

(dick/simmonds)

Hunched foetal in the corner of my soul
My fingernails are bleeding
From climbing up the wall
This time you really hurt me right down to the core
And i’m desperately trying to find a reason
To forgive you for it all

I saw your life as a shadowplay
In a trance i was held by the shadowplay
In the spell of the shadowplay
From celtic illumination
I see the celtic illumination
The celtic

I never realized just how far we’d gone
I turned around and all that i saw was distance
Through an anger that burned everytime
That someone mentioned your name.
I should have noticed, should have read the signs
We could have talked it out if there was a problem
It wasn’t obvious then
But then it isn’t really obvious now

I saw your life as a shadowplay
In a trance i was held by the shadowplay
In the spell of the shadowplay
From celtic illumination
I see the celtic illumination
The celtic

I could have changed i could have settled down
I could have been whatever you wanted me to be
If you gave me the chance
But it seems that it’s too late for that now
I thought i knew you thought we had it made
I’d thought it out, thought i had the answers
After all is said and done
The only thing i really know is your name.

I sit and wait for the shadowplay
Let me in into the world of the shadowplay
I’ll follow you to the shadowplay
Through celtic illumination
Give me the celtic illumination
Illumination.

To the centre of the city where all roads meet, waiting for you,
To the depths of the ocean where all hopes sank, searching for you,
I was moving through the silence without motion, waiting for you,
In a room with a window in the corner i found truth.

In the shadowplay, acting out your own death, knowing no more,
As the assassins all grouped in four lines, dancing on the floor,
And with cold streel, odour on their bodies mad a move to connect,
But i could only stare in disbelief as the crowds all left.

I did everything, everything i wanted to,
I let them use you for their own ends,
To the centre of the city in the night, waiting for you.
To the centre of the city in the night, waiting for you.
