Twice / Leo Kottke & Mike Gordon

Twice is a song by Leo Kottke & Mike Gordon from the album Sixty Six Steps.


When the stars up in the sky
When the lights along the street
When the TVs in the motel shine

When the fingertips are frozen
When the empty wind starts blowin'
If they've got one they're all going, home

We're just sitting here, all by myself
You and me, nobody else but me
Sometimes shadows are the only light we see

Every night somebody's cryin'
Down the alley, on the cold, cold, ground
Someone's running, but they'll never, never, think

There's a shadow underneath the trees
Someone running, someone no one needs
Sometimes darkness is the only light we see

There's a shadow underneath the tree
Someone running, someone no one needs
Sometimes darkness is the only light we see ...

@lmcguire It sure is! Popocatépetl (active volcano); Central Mexico. Cheers!

This version is OK, but I prefer the lyrics-free version on the Standing In My Shoes album.

such a great Kottke song - simple yet evocative.
