"Shadows" lyrics

Oak avenue sweats in the summer heat
We bought a blow-up pool to get away for a week
Set it up in your mom's back yard
Towels rolled out on the concrete beach

You were floating out there
In the shape of a star
Waves tipping over the side
And I found some place
In the shade by the car
Where I could see the sun hit your eyes
I see our whole life

Here in the shadows
Right there at your side
And I'll be singing along with every word you write
Here in the shadows
While you're in the light
You get me through the day
I'll get you through the night

Palisades peak through the fog in the street
We got a small apartment
While the rent was cheap
Slept on the floor that first night in
Wakin' up aching with lines on our cheek

And you're there looking up at an empty wall
Saying, "were as young as we'll ever be but don't it feel old"
And sometimes it feels like there's nothing to show
And you're out there all on your own

Here in the shadows
Right there at your side
And I'll be singing along with every word you write
Here in the shadows
While you're in the light
You get me through the day
I'll get you through the night

I'll take the cold side
You sleep and I'll drive
Watch the night turn blue
Fade into you

I'm here in the shadows
Right there at your side
And I'll be singing along with every word you write
Here in the shadows
While you're in the light
You get me through the day
I'll get you through the night
