Gold Shadow Lyrics - Singles - Asaf Avidan

There's a gold shadow seeping through the door 

There's a cold sparrow lying still upon the floor 

Dead and true as lipstick 

Slow as the speed of skin 

There's a gold, gold shadow growing from within 

There's a bent willow in the moonlight painted blue 

There's a spent window silhouetting you 

Deep and true as whiskey 

Soft and sure as lies 

There's a bent, bent willow reflecting in your eyes 

But now there's a girl out in a boat 

Her arms are outstretched and she's barely afloat 

There's a man on the shore, a rope in his hands 

It's tied to the boat, and he's pulling as hard as he can 

Not to bring her to him,but to pull the whole shore 

and the whole world with it to her open door 

All his voices are her 

All his voices are her 

Has he been here before? 

Nobody's sure 

There's a silver distance, a luminescent glimpse 

There's a river of resistance, dried to cracks upon your lips 

Brittle as believing 

Sticky as betrayal 

There's a silver distance opening up like a trail 

There was a time before all the leaves 

covered the beauty of Adam & Eve 

And they were blind, and they were free 

To be whatever they wanted to be 

But now they are just a prayer in a song 

And he is so sorry for all that went wrong 

All his voices are her 

All his voices are her 

Has he been here before? 

Has he been here before?
