Me and My Shadow
Loneliness and Solitude: Me and My Shadow's Melancholic Journey
Lyrics
Shades of night are falling and I'm lonely
As darkness arrives, I feel isolated and alone.
Standing on the corner feeling blue
Standing in a melancholic state at a street corner.
Sweethearts out for fun
Couples enjoying themselves.
Pass me one by one
People in relationships passing by.
Guess I'll wind up like I always do
Expecting to end up in a familiar situation.
With only
No one but myself.
Me and my shadow
Walking with my own shadow.
Strolling down the avenue
Walking along the street.
Me and my shadow
Accompanied only by my shadow.
Not a soul to tell our troubles to
No one around to share our problems.
And when it's twelve o'clock
At midnight,
We climb the stair
We go up the stairs.
We never knock
We don’t bother knocking,
For nobody's there
Because there's nobody there.
Just me and my shadow
Just myself and my shadow,
All alone and feeling blue
Feeling solitary and sad.
When the sun sets on the far horizon
As the day ends on the distant horizon,
And the parlor lamps begin to glow
And indoor lights start to illuminate,
Jim and Jack and John
Others get ready for rest,
Put their slippers on
While I remain active.
They're all set but we'restill on the go
Despite others preparing for sleep,
So lonely
I feel deeply alone.
Me and my shadow
Walking with my shadow,
Strolling down the avenue
Still moving along the street.
Me and my shadow
With only my shadow as company,
Not a soul to tell our troubles to
No one to confide in.
And when it's twelve o'clock
At midnight,
We climb the stair
We ascend the stairs,
We never knock
Without bothering to knock,
For nobody's there
Since there's nobody there.
Just me and my shadow
Just me and my shadow,
All alone and feeling blue.
Feeling alone and sad.
