Shadows

Somebody tell me why

I'm so tired I could cry

Fell out the window like a crooked cat

Don't wanna lay down and die

Lady with the white clothes came from easy street

And now dirty work is all she does

But she don't wanna show a poor boy where to go

I'm in the darkness because

Shadows at night keep good company

Shadows of day time too

Standing on the fringes of light

Shadows of love will shelter you

Fell out the window like a crooked cat

Well she set my house ablaze

Landing in slow motion

What a beautiful crash

Into a dead end street

No Casanova with a magic lamp

But in the cast I play the lead

Keep it in mind and you just might find

That shadows are all you need

Shadows at night keep good company

Shadows of day time too

Standing on the fringes of light

Shadows of love will shelter you

Shadows of night keep good company

Shadows of the day time too

Standing on the fringes of light

Shadows of love will shelter you

Shelter you

Shelter you
