a moment from yesterday


I walked out of the store
into a day finally free and clear 
of the awful heat and humidity we've been having
and before me against the cloudless sky
is a huge American flag
slowly blowing and billowing in the breeze
and the 'muzak' in the air is this song...
that I've never heard
but had no trouble googling...




My Shadow/Keane 
It's time to make a start
To get to know your heart
Time to show your face
Time to take your place

In every speck of dust
In every universe
When you feel most alone
You will not be alone

Just shine a light on me
Shine a light
I'll shine a light on you
Shine a light
And you will see my shadow
On every wall
And you will see my footprints
On every floor

It only takes a spark
To tear the world apart
These tiny little things
That make it all begin

Just shine a light on me
Shine a light
I'll shine a light on you
Shine a light
And you will see my shadow
On every wall
And you will see my reflection
In your freefall

Just shine a light on me
Shine a light
I'll shine a light on you
Shine a light

Cos when your back's against the wall
That's when you show no fear at all
And when you're running out of time
That's when you hitch your star to mine

We won't be leaving by the same road that we came by
We won't be leaving by the same road that we came by
