Count the Shadows
When I go walking
I count the shadows
I always have since I was a child
She calls it wisdom
says it's my "old soul"
I think it's the soul's suicide
Give it up to me
I want to be just like you
Living out of my head
Living out of my mind
Out of my head
Living out of my mind
How do you measure
The difference between
The way you play and the hand you're dealt
I must confess that
Every single day
I want to leave my cards face down on the felt
Give it up to me
I want to be just like you
Living out of my head
Living out of my mind
Out of my head
Living out of my mind
Oh, there's a fire
Every night in the sky
The stars, I can see 'em
I'm convinced I can be 'em
If I just learn how not to try
how not to try
When I go walking
I count the shadows
I always have since I was a child
She calls it wisdom
says it's my "old soul"
I think it's the soul's suicide
I think it's the soul's suicide
