lyrics
An opportunist who sees with his hands
My night vision's no good
I'm dizzy and I ain't been drinkin' friend
With a new coat on I went out riding
In the snow I froze
I need only you to find me
In a corner room where shadows move
I can't remember sleeping
There was too much, too much to do
I passed your stop and passed mine too
Fingers white while doors close
Short goodbyes on the longest street in town
When I waited for a train I thought of the quiet thing you'd say-
find your own way home.
Pretty gifts bestowed upon me
Clutched too tight they shattered
I hate to say I've been no kind of friend
Didn't take your money but how I ran
There ain't no place to go
Your spectre followed me all the way down
When I waited for a train I thought of a quiet thing you'd say-
find your own way home.
Tonight's no different, I'm lost as ever
there's something more that makes me shiver
Me and you (alone) can tell the lie.
(Me and) you alone can tell the lie (to)
Me and you (alone) can tell the lie.
(Me and) you alone can tell the lie to me.
An opportunist who sees with his hands
My night vision's no good
I'm dizzy and I ain't been drinkin' friend.
My night vision's no good
I'm dizzy and I ain't been drinkin' friend
With a new coat on I went out riding
In the snow I froze
I need only you to find me
In a corner room where shadows move
I can't remember sleeping
There was too much, too much to do
I passed your stop and passed mine too
Fingers white while doors close
Short goodbyes on the longest street in town
When I waited for a train I thought of the quiet thing you'd say-
find your own way home.
Pretty gifts bestowed upon me
Clutched too tight they shattered
I hate to say I've been no kind of friend
Didn't take your money but how I ran
There ain't no place to go
Your spectre followed me all the way down
When I waited for a train I thought of a quiet thing you'd say-
find your own way home.
Tonight's no different, I'm lost as ever
there's something more that makes me shiver
Me and you (alone) can tell the lie.
(Me and) you alone can tell the lie (to)
Me and you (alone) can tell the lie.
(Me and) you alone can tell the lie to me.
An opportunist who sees with his hands
My night vision's no good
I'm dizzy and I ain't been drinkin' friend.

Dan Sheron has a rare talent for telling compelling stories set to incredible music. October's Road is a thing of beauty, a record to get lost in at a time when too many see music as either a disposable single use commodity or as sonic wallpaper. Fantastic.
