Me and My Shadow
Solitude in City Streets
Lyrics
Shades of night are falling and I'm lonely
As darkness falls, I feel isolated and without companionship.
Standing on the corner feeling blue
Standing in a desolate state, feeling melancholic.
Sweethearts out for fun
Couples or lovers enjoying themselves.
Pass me one by one
They pass me one after another, disregarding my presence.
Guess I'll wind up like I always do
I'll likely end up in the same situation as usual.
With only
Only myself.
Me and my shadow
Alone with my own shadow.
Strolling down the avenue
Walking casually along the street.
Me and my shadow
Still accompanied by my own shadow.
Not a soul to tell our troubles to
No one to share our problems or concerns with.
And when it's twelve o'clock
At midnight.
We climb the stair
We ascend the stairs.
We never knock
Without announcing ourselves.
For nobody's there
No one is there for us.
Just me and my shadow
Just me and my shadow, feeling lonely.
All alone and feeling blue
Completely alone and in a sad state.
When the sun sets on the far horizon
When 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 prepare for rest.
Put their slippers on
Getting ready to relax while I remain active.
They're all set but we'restill on the go
Feeling very alone.
So lonely
Just myself and my shadow.
Me and my shadow
Walking together along the street.
Strolling down the avenue
Still accompanied by my shadow.
Me and my shadow
No one to share our problems or concerns with.
Not a soul to tell our troubles to
Similar actions at midnight.
And when it's twelve o'clock
We go up the stairs.
We climb the stair
Without alerting anyone.
We never knock
No one awaits us.
For nobody's there
Just me and my shadow, feeling lonely.
Just me and my shadow
Alone and sad.
All alone and feeling blue.
Continuing the feeling of loneliness and melancholy.
