Lyrics
Anywhere you go I'll be your shadow
Expressing a commitment to be constantly present and supportive, like a shadow, for the person being addressed.
Anything you need you can let me be
Offering assistance and expressing willingness to fulfill any needs the person may have.
Any time of day I'll be on my way
Committing to be available at any time of day, ready to help or be with the person addressed.
(Come on, say it, don't take too long)
A playful encouragement to speak up and communicate without hesitation.
Anywhere you go I'll be your shadow
Reiteration of the commitment to be a constant companion, likening it to a shadow.
The words ain't comin, man they're hard to say
Acknowledging difficulty in expressing feelings or thoughts, suggesting a struggle with verbalizing emotions.
You said it yourself, I'm just not that way
Referencing a previous statement by the person being addressed, acknowledging a perceived emotional limitation.
Moses, not Aaron, could part the sea

Are you in despair? I will help you bear
Offering support and assistance during times of despair, indicating a willingness to share burdens.
When you're short on cash, I'm your man in black
Promising financial support and portraying oneself as a dependable figure in times of need.
Sew me to your feet, at your beckoning
Symbolic gesture of loyalty, suggesting a commitment to follow and be subservient to the person addressed.
(Just come on, tell me, won't take too long)
Encouraging the person to speak openly, assuring them that it won't take long to express their thoughts.
