Ted Nunes - Shadows Of The Past Lyrics

I ran for my buckle through the ghosts of gold miners
Hundred mile horse trails carved by Tevis Cup riders
But now I'm back home with a cigarette in my hand
From the shadows they cast
Riding waves of the past
My heads under sinks with concrete in my eye
Twisting a wrench and cursing the sky
Drifting through memories when I gave a damn
From the shadows they cast
Riding waves of the past
Oh Florence Lake
How we forsake
The beauty when it passes us by
Grinders and dreamers
Hang like a fever
And disappear one random sunrise
Columbine Lake
And how we forsake
The beauty when it passes us by
From the shadows they cast
Riding waves of the past
I won't be who I once was I know that
But it doesn't dull the sting of all the false bottoms
Like a fruit crate that's rotten each night I'm learning how to sing
So the next time I see you I hope that it's different
Cause I Never wanted to leave
From the shadows they cast
Riding waves of the past
Oh Florence Lake
How we forsake
The beauty when it passes us by
Grinders and dreamers
Hang like a fever
And disappear one random sunrise
Columbine Lake
And how we forsake
The beauty when it passes us by
From the shadows they cast
Riding waves of the past
From the shadows they cast
Riding waves of the past
