Sweep Away My Shadow Lyrics by No Knife

…Hit Man Dreams…

1997

[Verse 1]
Look for your reason
For the key to the season
I can't stop the leaves from falling
Wither away here
Nothing to say dear
Looking for chance to find my calling
[Pre-Chorus]
How would you know
[Chorus 1: Mitch Wilson & (Ryan Ferguson)]
(That's all I'll say) Dying to upset you
(All I'll say) Dying to upset you
(All I'll say) Dying to upset you
As I sweep away my shadow
(That's all I'll say) Dying to upset you
(All I'll say) Dying to upset you
(All I'll say) Dying to upset you
As I sweep away my shadow
My shadow
My shadow
[Verse 2]
Show motion
Drop of the ocean
And bottles on the shore
I get to the daydream
With a bottle of daybeam
Slap the one foot on the floor
[Chorus 2: Mitch Wilson & (Ryan Ferguson)]
(All I'll say) Dying to meet you
(All I'll say) Dying to take you
(All I'll say) Dying to make
I'll make you sweep away my shadow
(All I'll say) Dying to meet you
(All I'll say) Dying to take you ah
(All I'll say) Dying to make
I'll make you sweep away my shadow
My shadow
My shadow
[Bridge 1]
I like the protection
I like the woods that show
I like the protection
I like the woods that show
I like the protection
I like the woods that show
I like the protection
I like the woods that show
[Bridge 2: Mitch Wilson & (Ryan Ferguson)]
(So what's that show) So what's that show
(So what's that show) So what's that show
(So what's that show) So what's that show
[Verse 1]
Look for your reason
For the key to the season
I can't stop the leaves from falling
Wither away here
Nothing to say dear
There chance to find my calling
[Outro: Mitch Wilson & (Ryan Ferguson)]
(All I'll say)
(All I'll say)
(All I'll say)
Sweep away my shadow
(All I'll say)
(All I'll say)
(All I'll say)
Sweep away my shadow
My shadow
My shadow
