Jackson Browne Shadow Dream Song Lyrics

Shadow Dream Song Lyrics

I meant to call her name
I meant to take her hand
I meant to be the same and understand
Just what was happening in the evening
Between the princess and the prince

I can`t be bothered now
And I can`t eat or drink
I can`t remember how I used to think
What was the song she sang before the morning rang
Bringing the princess to the prince

It`s a crystal ringing way
She has about her in the day
But she`s a laughing dappled shadow
She`s a laughing dappled shadow in my night

If I could hear her voice
If I could see her face
If I could have my choice I`d be in the place
Where I saw her last on the evening past
Of the princess and the prince

It`s a crystal ringing way
She has about her in the day
But she`s a laughing dappled shadow
She`s a laughing dappled shadow in my night
