Jefferson Starship
Shadowlands
Young girl in the cityShe was a small town girl in the middle of the city of light“What am I doing here?” she cried.“What am I doing here?”“I want to be dangerousLike a fire in the skyThere’s burning barricades in the streetsAnd fire in my eyes.”(chant)So there she sat with a diamond bullet in theCenter of her heartNo a mile from there are people living ten toA roomNot a mile from here and a few streets further onThey’re sleepin’ in doorways, boxes, some of themchildrenAnd the sound of gunfire, cracks the nightIn the shadow landsAnd the saxaphone, in the shadow lands, sings(chant)She had nothing on but the radioHer hair was nighttime black and here eyes compellingLetras de cancionesCompelling me to dreams, “Go out and change the world,”she saidCompelling me to actionIn the night striped with lighteningShe will come and feed on dreamsHair streaming forth, burnin’ with desireAnd the storm deepens, cracks with thunderLust enters into it, sex! Mouth! Sweet! Blood red!(chant) And as the sky explodesAnd I’m drawn to action(with her)It’s like theFirst time that you really fell in loveAnd your both on the battle linesAnd it’s like the first time that you’re reallyfuckin’ tooAlive in the bed with the woman you’re fuckin’Who’s fuckin’ youShe is incredible, monumental, better than JesusShe’s a guide through the chaos, a road to the passionBetween the earth and sky, where love is like a drugAnd everything is differentAnd we two will love each otherAnd we will still remember our first kissAs the action takes overNo thought of circumstance, or consequenceAnd all the rules have changedAnd she’s a specialist, in darkness, in the shadow lands.
