Lyrics Looking Glass - Darrell Scott

Looking Glass

Feels like someone’s looking over my shoulder
I turn around and no ones there
Looking glass is looking older and older
And lately I don’t care
Looking glass can’t you see what I’ve been through?
Slowly giving myself away
Run from the past, run for the future
And miss the sweet smell of today
I play this song on my own piano
It helps makes sense of the shape I’m in
I open the doors on a cool rainy morning
Songs come riding on the wind
Take me away over clouds of sorrow
I guess I’ll ride it one more time
Go through the deluge to get to the promise
Songs are rainbows in the sky
Human longing for inspiration
Woman painting canvas across the street
Got an old slouchy had and a cold like Renoir
Think I’ll bring her a cup of tea
Maybe light is the absence of shadow
Maybe shadow needs a place to sleep
Oh, we shine our light as much as we’re going to
The rest the cats and angels keep
Me and this song, we’ve got a lot in common
Neither knows quite how to end
Just follow along like a leaf on the river
Believe we always can begin again
