Aztec Camera - 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
