There may still be some temp lyrics in here, but at least there's a structure. I'm hosting my open mic tonight, so I'll post a file tomorrow.
Cheers,
Sam D.
The room grows dim and quiet
Hushed reverence through the crowd
Bare feet approach the apron
(And) It's your spotlight now
All those years of practice
How that sacrifice could sting
But you beat upon that ingot
'Till it thinned enough to ring
And as you take the stage
And horsehair touches string
I think I see behind you
The shadow of your wings
Shadow of your wings
Shadow of your wings
It was the barley and the cocoa bean
The critics would adore
But your songs of loss and longing
Are the ones that moved me more
BRIDGE
(I think) I want to know you
Want to know how you feel
And if you ever tire
Of running on that wheel
(To you) I'm just another fan
I'm just another man
Vying for a glance from you
A nod, a smile...
Would you think it strange
If I said how much it means...
All those miles spool out behind you
Like a kite on endless string
Still the words can wet your eyes a bit
When you grab the mic to sing
As you take the stage
And as horsehair touches string
I think I see behind you
The shadow of your wings
Shadow of your wings
Shadow of your wings
