Song lyrics

Back to the cold restless streets at night

Talk to myself about tomorrow night

Walls of white protest

A gravestone in name

Who is it now?

It's always the same


Who is it now? Who calls me inside?

Are the leaves on the trees just a living disguise?

I walk the street rain tragicomedy

I'll walk home again to the street melody


But I know, oh no

But I know, oh no

But I know


Shadows and tall trees

Shadows and tall trees

Shadows and tall trees

Shadows and tall trees


Life through a window

Discoloured pain

Mrs Brown's washing is always the same

I walk the street rain tragicomedy

I'll walk home again to the street melody


But I know, oh no

But I know, oh no

But I know


Do you feel in me

Anything redeeming

Any worthwhile feeling?

Is love like a tightrope

Hanging on my ceiling?


But I know, oh no

But I know, oh no

But I know


Shadows and tall trees

Shadows and tall trees

Shadows and tall trees

Shadows and tall trees


Shadows, shadows, shadows

Shadows, shadows, shadows

Shadows and tall trees

Shadows and tall trees


Shadows, shadows, shadows

Shadows, shadows, shadows

Shadows and tall trees

Shadows and tall trees
