Shadow Man
I'm the shadow man -
Thinly tracing every step you take
I'm there, always there
Pressing near and yet apart
Just a shadow of a man
I'm the shadow man -
Don't look back or down
I will be hiding
Beneath a footstep or a cloudy sky
But I'm there, always there
Just a shadow of a man
Pressing near yet apart
Treading lightly here and there
I can't be loved
And I won't be ignored
So lend me your hand
And stay close if you can
Everyone needs somewhere to be
Even a shadow man
