Lyrics

[Verse 1] You don't see many shadows here in the city Only picturesque windows, all covered and dirty Black and grey that once was new Yesterday that once was you No I can't find my shadow in the city [Verse 2] We got canyons of smoke and steel-blue horizons Our castles explode as the city lays dying History that once was new Memories that once were true No, I can't find my shadow in the city [Bridge] And oh, for the green, green hills of home For the hills I used to roam So many years ago Oh, for the love that's now grown cold For the love that's now grown old As the hills I used to roam [Verse 3] You don't find many lovers here in the jungle Only magazine covers designed for the humble Cold caress that burns and slides Emptiness that's hard to hide Used to be I knew my mind But I can't find my shadow in the city
