Long Shadow - Kelleigh Bannen

Every song with a broken heart says drive out to the coast

Damn my luck, when I show up, that’s when I feel you most

So I drove up to Seattle where they say it always rains

But even on a cloudy day

You cast a long shadow

Even the highway can’t outrun

Somehow you’re always standing

Between me and the sun

No matter how far you follow my heart

New York to California

You cast a long shadow, don’t ya

You cast a long shadow, don’t ya

Oh I know I can’t' stay here and I know I can’t go home

Baby I gotta cross an ocean to finally shake your ghost

I fly faster than your memory to the ends of the earth

'Cause hometown goodbyes are a world of hurt

You cast a long shadow

Even the highway can’t outrun

Somehow you’re always standing

Between me and the sun

No matter how far you follow my heart

New York to California

You cast a long shadow, don’t ya

You cast a long shadow, don’t ya

Dive bar smoke on a leather jacket

I can’t help but hear you laughing

Dancing with me even after the end of the song

Baby that’s just how you linger on

You cast a long shadow

Even the highway can’t outrun

Somehow you’re always standing

Between me and the sun

No matter how far you follow my heart

New York to California

You cast a long shadow, don’t ya

You cast a long shadow, don’t ya
