    "The Shade" Lyrics :::
    [Verse 1]
    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]
    Baby, there's no better time
    No better time, baby, we can't find
    Oh-whoa-whoa, oh-whoa-whoa
    [Chorus]
    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]
    The embers of a fire still burning as they die
    Stay bright to keep us side by side
    [Pre-Chorus]
    Baby, there's no better time
    No better time, baby, we can't find
    Oh-whoa-whoa, oh-whoa-whoa
    [Chorus]
    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
    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
    [Bridge]
    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
    [Chorus]
    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
    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

    Not sure if this is the intention of the song, but what I take from it is that it's describing the euphoria of being in love. Seemingly mundane things, "a blade of grass, a grain of sand" become incredible, one becomes excited about them, wanting everything in life, "all there is and ever was." A feeling I've experienced, but not in a few years.

    Lovely song! Feels good to listen to this, even after listening multiple times over multiple years. Thanks Metric :)

    _Finally!_ I _love_ this song! But I didn't know the title or the band, and I'd search for lyrics that I _thought_ I heard. And then I happily stumble upon it here!
