Tim Akkerman – Shadows

All Music

Tim Akkerman & The Ivy League ft. Friends

We never saw the papers, but that’s just a new excuse
Not that we wanna stay blind, but we’re dreading all the news
It might take forever, it might take awhile
But of course we will get through this, even if it takes us miles

And there will come a day we’ll know what this is for
When the sun shines through the window and the shadows finally fall
And whenever music plays it means we can go on
Just keep your trust in people so the shadows finally fall

Just spare a thought for helpers, who are trying just to fix
Who spend their life caring, and aren’t allowed to call in sick
It finally seems so clear now, there’s never really doubt
That the ones we take for granted, are ones we can’t without

And there will come a day we’ll know what this is for
When the sun shines through the window and the shadows finally fall
And whenever music plays it means we can go on
Just keep your trust in people so the shadows finally fall

When the world feels so cold and lonesome, just in times like these
Let your voice be the connection for an entire world of peace
Be stronger and be wiser, be the one who leads
Put yourself in the right direction, and help the ones in need

And there will come a day we’ll know what this is for
When the sun shines through the window and the shadows finally fall
And whenever music plays it means we can go on
Just keep your trust in people so the shadows finally fall

Just look out for the day when we will have it beat
When we can shake our hands and there’ll be parties in the street
The music will always play, it cannot be contained
We’ll remember these times now as something we overcame
