Shadow Of A Man

Sha-da-dow, sha-da-dow, oh
Sha-da-dow, sha-da-dow, oh, of a man
Sha-da-dow, sha-da-dow, oh
Dance in the shadow of a ma-a-a-a-a-a-a—

Standing in the shadow of another man
Lonely as the streets pass me by (Oh, oh)
Life ain’t under pressure ’cause I got a plan
Staring at myself in the eye (Ooh, ooh, oh)

When I get this feeling, I can’t get enough
‘Cause I start believing, and my voice gets tough
Now I got this feeling, I can’t get enough
‘Cause I won’t be used for my love and left out to cry

I don’t wanna fade into the darkness tonight
Show me the light
I don’t wanna be the one to fall on the knife
To come alive
I’m about to be there, I’m about to be there
Watch me, I swear I’ll dance in the shadow of a man

Hard to be the yellow in a purple sky (Sky)
Peaking through the eye of the storm (Eye of the storm)
Gotta be the truth or you’ll become a lie (Become a lie)
Piercing like your skin from a thorn (No, no, oh)

When I get this feeling, I can’t get enough
‘Cause I start believing, and my voice gets tough
Now I got this feeling, I can’t get enough
‘Cause I won’t be used for my love and left out to cry

I don’t wanna fade into the darkness tonight
Show me the light
I don’t wanna be the one to fall on the knife
To come alive
I’m about to be there, I’m about to be there
Watch me, I swear I’ll dance in the shadow of a man

Sha-da-dow, sha-da-dow, oh (Shadow of a man)
Sha-da-dow, sha-da-dow, oh, of a man
Sha-da-dow, sha-da-dow, oh (Shadow of a man)
Dance in the shadow of a man

Can’t ignore the voice within, and a woman can’t lose, but you still pretend
Can’t ignore the voice within, and a woman can’t lose, but you still pretend
Can’t ignore the voice within, and a woman can’t lose, but you still pretend
‘Cause I won’t be used for my love and left out to cry

I don’t wanna fade into the darkness tonight
Show me the light
I don’t wanna be the one to fall on the knife
I’m ’bout to come alive
I’m about to be there, I’m about to be there
Watch me, I swear I’ll dance in the shadow of a man

Sha-da-dow, sha-da-dow, oh (Shadow of a man)
Sha-da-dow, sha-da-dow, oh, of a man
Sha-da-dow, sha-da-dow, oh (Shadow of a man)
Dance in the shadow of a man
