Cast a Shadow

by Beat Happening

on Black Candy (1989), Look Around (2015)

The sandman is bringing me a special gift
A sleepy dream memory of our first kiss

Cast a shadow in my direction
Cast a shadow in my direction
Cast a shadow in my direction
Cast a shadow in my direction

The sandman comes tonight I have a request
A snapshot dreamy keepsake of your embrace

Cast a shadow in my direction
Cast a shadow in my direction
Cast a shadow in my direction
Cast a shadow in my direction
Cast a shadow over here

We'll make shadow plays we'll dig shadow graves in my shady shadow cave
The shadow grows longer in my twilight sleep
I wallow and remember your lock me teeth

Cast a shadow in my direction
Cast a shadow in my direction
Cast a shadow in my direction
Cast a shadow in my direction

Bring back shadows of your affection
Cast a shadow in my direction
Bring back shadows of your protection
Cast a shadow in my direction
