Outstretched Shadow
Lyrics: Chris Hill
Music: Chris Hill
Year: 2002
Notes: My newest (as of posting the initial batch of songs). One of my few "rockers", although
it sounds decent acoustic also.
The summer heat hits me hard
My outstretched shadow casts halfway down the street
Sweat soaks through my shirt
Press on knowing that someday I will find you there
[chorus]
I just want to see you, hear you call my name
I just want to see you, see you
[end chorus]
Time heals not all of my wounds
Just one month ago you said that you were through with me
My emptiness is palpable, not sensible
I know that living well is the best revenge
[chorus]
Every day one day older
Four years turns into six and six turns into ten
Walking down the same old streets
People come and go, they remind me that I remain
[chorus]
