lyrics

Heroes and pantomimes
The latter’s worth a dozen for a single dime

See, I might make it there on my own
But it's not the same going on this way
I turn back and catch a glimpse below
where the impressions of your footsteps end

There’s a breeze that blows from east to west
And every gust is a familiar ruffle of my hair
I savor every breath within my chest
Watching every sun that sets at dusk fall just beyond Elysian fields

Heroes and pantomimes
The latter’s worth a dozen for a single dime

I had a dream in a hue of gold
of a well kept lawn with a garden pond
In that vacant lot near my childhood home
At the furthest end was your silhouette

There’s a breeze that blows from east to west
And every gust is a familiar ruffle of my hair
I savor every breath within my chest
Watching every sun that sets at dusk fall just beyond Elysian fields

Where the bustle of the city is distant
When the clouds have temporarily lifted
The foliage begins to glow
and the negative space in it’s shadow makes a face

It casts a wink
here on the brink of twilight
An Autumn season is coming on
and then I'll see you somewhere else

Heroes and pantomimes
The latter’s worth a dozen for a single dime
