Did your shadow ever speak to you?
And did he say that something\'s wrong?
Only a figure on a lamplit wall
Never realised he cared at all
Did he stop you going on?


Yes my shadow spoke to me tonight
And made me throw my dreams away
Told a story of a twisted man
Who was playing with some foolish plan
About a girl who\'d have her way


Sometimes shadows are near
I see things very clear
My life unwinds
Somewhere I\'ll make my stand
Look round at yesterday
And change my mind


Now your shadow isn\'t always there
In the light of a cloudy day
Or in circles where you hide from view
All the doubts that ever bothered you
And where people lose your name
