letra de recondite recollection - rick barry

[verse 1]
chasing shadows off the doorway
there was night terrors in your arms
i woke with a yell and you asked if i was okay
i said there was no reason to be alarmed
now there’s a raccoon turf fight in the backyard
and their battle cries are keeping us awake
we start laughing, trying to figure what they are
trying to say
well i’m gonna take a guess
they’ll take what they can get

[verse 2]
now i’ve forgotten about god for a long time
or should i say that she has forgotten me
every day i am the -ssh0l- in the spotlight
so your shadow is comforting
that night you said you should’ve started running
well me, i didn’t have the good sense
or maybe i would’ve seen this coming
but i’m not giving up yet
though i’ll take what i can get

[verse 3]
drinking all night at the hotel
two days straight without sleep
and gee, your laughter was seductive
your eyes glazed in a minor key
now it’s been so long since i had a place to call home
i’ve been wandering for some decade
my values were abruptly disowned
i was a writer with not much left to say
and i have not recovered yet
but i’ll take what i can get

[verse 4]
you’ve been injured by the evils of the business
thinking maybe you don’t have the stomach for it yet
and you surrender by such greed and ugliness
that sh-t is hard to forget
i’d heard you were a talented performer
you said you’d heard my songs on the internet
saying my words made you want to cash in and surrender
it was such a strange compliment
but i’ll take what i can get
