Somebody tell me why I’m so tired I could cry Fell out the window like a crooked cat Don’t wanna lay down and die
Lady with the white clothes came from easy street And now dirty work is all she does But she don’t wanna show a poor boy where to go I’m in the darkness because
Shadows at night keep good company Shadows of day time too Standing on the fringes of light Shadows of love will shelter you
Fell out the window like a crooked cat Well she set my house ablaze Landing in slow motion What a beautiful crash Into a dead end street
No Casanova with a magic lamp But in the cast I play the lead Keep it in mind and you just might find That shadows are all you need
Shadows at night keep good company Shadows of day time too Standing on the fringes of light Shadows of love will shelter you
Shadows of night keep good company Shadows of the day time too Standing on the fringes of light Shadows of love will shelter you Shelter you Shelter you
