Shanghai - Sundowner Lyrics

Shanghai – Sundowner Lyrics

Smoke and mirrors cloud sophrosyne
Your portrait fails in nearly every scene
Spears of lightening pierce a starless sky
Inside this violent dream
Why now come to meet me
With your righteousness and anger
And your disregard for danger

He is so full of surprises
As sun sets and chases the day
Well he is so very surprising
And will not stay

Cool waters form a glassy cage
You’re still running but who’s to blame?
Sunlight reveals a tainted man
But time will win the game
I am rolling somewhere in time
As the sun fades away

He is so full of surprises
As sun sets and chases the day
Oh he is so very surprising
And will not stay
