Exploring themes of love, loss, and the ephemeral nature of life, this track delves into the complexities of human relationships. The song's protagonist is in a relationship with a woman who seems to be struggling with her own internal conflicts. She seeks solace and escape through dreams and fantasies, but reality always finds a way back. Love is depicted as elusive and fleeting - something that shimmers brightly but inevitably fades away. The repeated line "It's too far away for me to hold" signifies the protagonist's struggle to grasp onto this transient love and his eventual acceptance of letting it go. This song serves as a poignant reminder that not all that glitters is gold; some things are destined to fade away, leaving us with cherished memories and lessons learned.
Shimmer
Lyrics
She calls me from the cold
Just when I was low, feeling short of stable
And all that she intends
And all she keeps inside, isn't on the label
She says she's ashamed
And can she take me for awhile?
Can I be a friend, we'll forget the past
Maybe I'm not able
And I break at the bend
We're here and now, but will we ever be again
'Cause I have found
All that shimmers in this world is sure to fade
Away again
She dreams a champagne dream
Strawberry surprise, pink linen and white paper
Lavender and cream
Fields of butterflies, reality escapes her
She says that love is for fools who fall behind
And I'm somewhere in between
I never really know
A killer from a savior
'Til I break at the bend
We're here and now, but will we ever be again
'Cause I have found
All that shimmers in this world is sure to fade
Away again
It's too far away for me to hold
It's too far away
It's too far away for me to hold
It's too far away
It's too far away for me to hold
It's too far away
It's too far away for me to hold
It's too far away
It's too far away for me to hold
It's too far away
It's too far away for me to hold
It's too far away
Guess I'll let it go
