It's sunset over Eden
And the garden lights with fire
The headlights wink against the haze
Calling out my name
The snake is in the valley
And he whispers soft and sweet
Steals away your innocence
Leaves you shivering in the heat
And I send my voice to heaven
"Won't you save my place"?
I will laugh at the shadow's kiss
Cold upon my face
I've smelled rain over the desert
Seen lightning rise up to the sky
I've seen lovers names carved in stone
Knowing that they're gone
And I swear upon my bible
And I swear upon my gun
That when darkness rails against me
I will put it to the run
And I send my voice to heaven
"Won't you save my place? "
I will laugh at the shadow's kiss
Cold upon my face
I will take a leap of faith
And make my way through Shadowland
Disappear into the night
For the other side of Shadowland
Won't you walk with me this evening?
Down this dusky canyon road
Tell me secrets that you hold
Never before told
And I pray the wind is with you
And I hope your legs are strong
'Cause the road is ever winding
And it's stretching out so long
And I send my voice to heaven
"Won't you save my place? "
I will laugh at the shadow's kiss
Cold upon my face
I will take a leap of faith
And make my way through Shadowland
Disappear into the night
For the other side of Shadowland
It's sunset over Eden
And the garden lights with fire
The headlights wink against the haze
Calling out my name
And I send my voice to heaven
"Won't you save my place? "
I will take a leap of faith
And make my way through Shadowland
Disappear into the night
For the other side of Shadowland
And if I ever said goodbye
Would you wait for me on the other side
Of Shadowland?
There's a siren song that's blowing cold
For the long, dark night upon my soul
Shadow, Shadowland
I will take a leap of faith
Shadow, Shadowland
And I will make my way
Shadow, Shadowland
Disappear into the night
Shadow, Shadowland
Until you're in my arms at the other side
