The Shade (Dreams So Real)

[Verse 1: Emily Haines]

I'm following the sun

That's setting in the West

We're floating on a bed of fading lights

A canopy of trees

Bears witness to the breeze

I'm falling like a feather, soft and light

[Pre-Chorus: Emily Haines]

Baby, there's no better time

No better time, baby, we can't find

Oh-whoa-whoa, oh-whoa-whoa

[Chorus: Emily Haines]

With eternal love, the stars above

All there is and ever was

I want it all, I want it all

I want it all, I want it all

A blade of grass, a grain of sand

The moonlit sea, to hold your hand

I want it all, I want it all

I want it all, I want it all

[Verse 2: Emily Haines]

The embers of a fire still burning as they die

Stay bright to keep us side by side

[Pre-Chorus: Emily Haines]

Baby, there's no better time

No better time, baby, we can't find

Oh-whoa-whoa, oh-whoa-whoa

Yeah, yeah, yeah

[Chorus: Emily Haines]

With eternal love, the stars above

All there is and ever was

I want it all, I want it all

I want it all, I want it all

A blade of grass, a grain of sand

The moonlit sea, to hold your hand

I want it all, I want it all

I want it all, I want it all

Eternal love, the stars above

All there is and ever was

I want it all, I want it all

I want it all, I want it all

A blade of grass, a grain of sand

The moonlit sea, to hold your hand

I want it all, I want it all

I want it all, I want it all

[Bridge: Emily Haines, James Shaw, Both]

We got the sunshine

We got the shade

We got temptation

We got it made

We got rewarded

We got refused

We got distorted

We got confused

We got the sunshine

We got the shade

I want it all, I want it all

I want it all, I want it all

Yeah

[Guitar Solo]

[Chorus: Emily Haines]

With eternal love, the stars above

All there is and ever was

I want it all, I want it all

I want it all, I want it all

A blade of grass, a grain of sand

The moonlit sea, to hold your hand

I want it all, I want it all

I want it all, I want it all

Eternal love, the stars above

All there is and ever was

I want it all, I want it all

I want it all, I want it all

A blade of grass, a grain of sand

The moonlit sea, to hold your hand

I want it all, I want it all

I want it all, I want it all

[Spoken: Emily Haines]

Woah, yeah

I do, I do want it all

But hey, wait

Don't get me wrong

When I say "I want it all"

I'm not talking about the arbitrary presuits of conformity and materialism

We are encuraged go waste our precious time on

I say "I want it all"

I mean I want my life

My one and only life

Just like everyone in this room has their one and only life

And their time in earth to experiance

So when I say I want it

That's what I'm saying when I say "I want it all"

That's what I'm saying when I say "I want it all"

Here we go

Oh yeah

[Chorus: Emily Haines]

I want it all, I want it all

I want it all, I want it all

Eternal love, the stars above

All there is and ever was

I want it all, I want it all

I want it all, I want it all

A blade of grass, a grain of sand

The moonlit sea, to hold your hand

I want it all, I want it all

I want it all, I want it all

Eternal love, the stars above

All there is and ever was

I want it all, I want it all

I want it all, I want it all

A blade of grass, a grain of sand

The moonlit sea, to hold your hand

I want it all, I want it all

I want it all, I want it all

[Outro: Emily Haines]

Yeah, thank you
