We were born beneath the same [?] in the sky

And I left California

Far behind

Cause in a dream I grew old in your eyes

And I've been tryna find you all this time

I am a foreigner longing for a home thats mine

But I don't speak the language

And I can't read the signs

No I can't read the signs

Take this cold heart till it beats again

And I will love you like a howling wind

Start this fire, watch the embers fall

We're just shadows dancing on the wall

Dancing on the wall, dancing on the wall

We were born with the same crooked smile

And nothing held us down, we just passed the time

Till we could throw ourselves open to the tide

And you put on your makeup and I combed my hair

I was so sure that some day soon I'll make you mine

But I keep getting older so much older

I keep getting older and I can't read the signs

Take this cold heart till it beats again

And I will love you like a howling wind

Start this fire, watch the embers fall

We're just shadows dancing on the wall

Dancing on the wall, dancing on the wall

Take this cold heart till it beats again

And I will love you like a howling wind

Start this fire, watch the embers fall

We're just shadows dancing on the wall

Dancing on the wall, dancing on the wall
