Iridescent Shadows
I remember warm Septembers
Creeping down an August highway
And a worn-out, trusted buddy, someone called a car
And I remember Queensland backroads shining in the sun
Like the million stars
Shining in our eyes for the things we'd never done
But meant to
Bobby Jones and Billy Soames
Cousin Joe were there beside me
Sharing good luck stories and the secrets of the sun
Hanging on to nothing more than good times yet to come
Till September days
Went their separate way
And thought they came again
They never seemed the same
Looking back on the pages of our lives
Wishing we could live them all again
Have you ever noticed that the many things we never noticed
Always seem much better when we're looking back at them
And I wonder, were those days as good as I remember
Or am I looking through the rainbows in my mind again
Do I see the coloured chapters of my life
Lying there
Or just the iridescent shadows of some black and white affairs?
Creeping down an August highway
And a worn-out, trusted buddy, someone called a car
And I remember Queensland backroads shining in the sun
Like the million stars
Shining in our eyes for the things we'd never done
But meant to
Bobby Jones and Billy Soames
Cousin Joe were there beside me
Sharing good luck stories and the secrets of the sun
Hanging on to nothing more than good times yet to come
Till September days
Went their separate way
And thought they came again
They never seemed the same
Looking back on the pages of our lives
Wishing we could live them all again
Have you ever noticed that the many things we never noticed
Always seem much better when we're looking back at them
And I wonder, were those days as good as I remember
Or am I looking through the rainbows in my mind again
Do I see the coloured chapters of my life
Lying there
Or just the iridescent shadows of some black and white affairs?
