Shadows On The Wall

[Verse 1]
I went walking down Lovers' Lane
They were tearing up the water main
Roping off the roaring excavation
I tried to do the math, where we took that photograph
But nothing familiar remained

[Chorus]
Only shadows on the wall

[Verse 2]
Drove all night to the Alamo
They were setting up a puppet show
Cotton candy, balloons and painted faces
I stayed to watch the tale unfold
The last stand was losing hold
As the crowd dwindled in the Texas sun

[Chorus]
It’s only shadows on the wall

[Verse 3]
Every day the camera crews are out
Filming for the evening news
Life will always have its moments
But these days, we move so fast
I turn around and you blow right past
The “here” and “now” plays like memory

[Outro]
We're only shadows on the wall
