[00:00:00] Midas Shadow (2001 Digital Remaster) - Al Stewart

[00:00:18] You got your ticket and your hotel keys

[00:00:22] And your overnight bag at your feet

[00:00:27] You're looking down on the tropical trees

[00:00:31] While the Spanish maids pick up the sheets

[00:00:35] Conquistador in search of gold

[00:00:40] For all the jackdaw reasons

[00:00:44] The Midas shadow that's so hard to please

[00:00:48] And follows wherever you go

[00:01:01] "Nothing ventured nothing gained" they said

[00:01:04] So you played for the winner takes all

[00:01:10] And tossed the dice high up and craned your head

[00:01:13] To see how the numbers would fall

[00:01:18] You stole the game so easily

[00:01:22] Your luck ran with the seasons

[00:01:26] But still the shadow that the night won't free

[00:01:30] Just follows wherever you go

[00:02:17] Another day another boarding card

[00:02:20] As you wait for your seat on the plane

[00:02:25] The movie runs but you're still working hard

[00:02:29] And you don't touch your food or champagne

[00:02:33] I know that when your well runs dry

[00:02:37] You'll want to know the reason

[00:02:42] The empty night will bring you no reply

[00:02:45] As it follows wherever you go
