Tainted Shots Lyrics


I could be your lonely hero
Trying to catch your eyes running through my mind
Nothing I could find
No one I could be
Only loneliness and
Someone else looking back at meI could've been much more than a hero
I could've been your warrior in times of need
Got to be more to this'
More than I've seen
To protect us from
The enemy within
I still can remember
Tainted shots of you
I miss those days
Your simple ways and wicked ways
A sentimental smile in your eyes
Why couldn't you have stayed around'
For a whileWhy didn't we talk things over'

Why didn't we speak the words of truth'
So many miles ahead
We will never walk
Now the hope is gone
And we are all alone
I still can remember
Tainted shots of you
I miss those days
Your simple ways and wicked ways
A sentimental smile in your eyes
Why couldn't they have stayed around'
For a whileIn a daydream I pretend, that we're together again
People waving goodbye
We fly over Montauk Long Island sky
Can you see the sun shining through'
Over rolling hills by the Irish Sea
We never been this close
I realize now what I needed the most

Enjoy the lyrics !!!
Soulful Swedish Singer / songwriter Anders Holst blends smoky jazz with the adult contemporary melodicism of Sting, Seal, and Leonard Cohen. Introspective, spiritual, and romantic, Five deftly weaves pop, jazz, and classical into a smooth style all its own.
-JAMES C. MONGER, ALL MUSIC GUIDE

Five, is exceptional entertainment. Highly recommended.
-LEE PROSSER, JAZZREVIEW.COM

There is something of Michael Franks in his voice, something reminiscent of Peter Skellern and, hidden in there somewhere perhaps, the wistfulness of Leonard Cohen. ...there deserves to be a place for an album like Five that dares to be different.
- DENIS POOLE, SMOOTHVIBES.COM

This debut offering by the soulful, deep voiced Swedish born singer, songwriter and producer may only be five tracks long but its soaring melodies, rich production texture and clever wistful lyrics pack an emotional punch equal to most full-length collections... beautifully blends pop, jazz, classical and chill flavors.
-JONATHAN WIDRAN, SMOOTH JAZZ NEWS

...combine warm, thoughtful, romantic, and, at times, bittersweet lyrics with melodies that will get inside your head and under your skin... add a smoky, intriguing voice, lush instrumentation, and sparkling production... and you've got a grand success.
