Shadow on the Sun
The Levellers

We've been singing since the morning
'til the setting of the sun
We sing of everything forever
'cause we've been going for so long.
We sing the heart of the cold song
Ever since we started the only one.

It's got words that bring us heaven
It's got words that give us hell
It's got tunes that shine like diamonds
And vicious notes as well
It's the feel of warm rain
The song of forever the unbroken chain


CHORUS
There's a shadow on the sun
That used to shine so brightly
For some it all goes wrong
Who refuse to step lightly
There's a break in the clouds
Let the cold sun on me
Like the new born doubt
That nothing's ever gonna be free.

It tells the sentiment of growing
And a tale of lonely death
It says everything worth knowing
'Til you draw another breath.
Hear the clouds ring on
The song of forever the only one,

CHORUS

And it gets me like nothing gets me
Then it throws me right back down.
It holds me then it chokes me
As it lays me on the ground.


Some will write a new line
then some will pass in on
Some just sing the same verse
But most will get it wrong
Play the heart of a cold song
Ever since we started the only one.


CHORUS


OUTRO:
That's the heart of a cold song
We sing the heart of the cold song
Thats the heart of all songs
Thats the heart of a cold song.
