Shadow's Play
(Jewel Kilcher)


Kiss me now, and take me down, my love
Open up the tender flower of love
Like a bird, you'll feel my heart inside
Beating with the rhythm of the tide
I'll raise my mouth, just like a glass, you'll drink
Tangerine lips and water deep
Rising up, I feel that ancient song
Playing to the rhythm of the dawn

Oh I feel what you're saying
When words aren't in the way
In the darkness I can feel you
Shadow's play

Strange, how now I'm jealous of the day
As the dawn carries you away
But when nighttime spreads it's starry wings
For you alone, I sing

Oh I feel, oh I feel what you're saying
When words aren't in the way
In the darkness I can feel you
Shadow's play
Shadow's play
