There they go like shadows, darling
between this world and that
never knowing where the light will shine
but I can tell you one thing, sweetheart
we share a place in time
nothing more is needed ’cause you’re mine
It’s been four years since Cowboy Junkies played a show in Saint Louis, the last being on 3/26/08 at the Sheldon, but there’s a good reason for that — they’ve been plenty busy. The band from Toronto recently finished its Nomad Series project, which gave us four wonderful, complex albums in 18 months — Renmin Park, Demons, Sing In My Meadow, and The Wilderness. Here’s one of our favorite tracks called “Damaged From the Start,” from Volume Four, The Wilderness.
