Shadow Of A Man

Intro
(Shadow, don’t shatter the world)
(Shadow, don’t shatter my whole world, babe)
(Shadow, don’t shatter the world)
Dance in the shadow of a m—

Verse 1
Standing in the shadow of another man
Lonely as the streets pass me by (Oh, oh)
Life’s been under pressure ’cause I got a plan
Starin’ at myself in the eye (Oh, oh-oh)

Pre-Chorus
When I get this feeling
I can’t get enough
‘Cause I stop believing
And my voice gets cold
Now I got this feeling
I can’t get enough
‘Cause I won’t be used for my love and left out to cry

Chorus
I don’t wanna be under the darkness tonight
Show me the light
I don’t wanna be the one to fall in love tonight
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

Verse 2
Hard to be the yellow in a purple sky (Sky)
He came through the eye of the storm (Eye of the storm)
Gotta be the truth or you’ll become a lie (Become that)
Piercing like your skin from bone (Oh, oh, I)

Pre-Chorus
When I get this feeling
I can’t get enough
‘Cause I stop believing
And my voice gets cold
Now I got this feeling
I can’t get enough
‘Cause I won’t be used for my love and left out to cry

Chorus
I don’t wanna be under the darkness tonight
Show me the light
I don’t wanna be the one to fall in love tonight
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

Post-Chorus
Shadow, don’t shatter the world (Shadow of a man)
Shadow, don’t shatter the other land
Shadow, don’t shatter the world (Shadow of a man)
Dance in the shadow of a man

Bridge
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

Chorus
I don’t wanna be under the darkness tonight
Show me the light
I don’t wanna be the one to fall in love tonight
About 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

Post-Chorus
Shadow, don’t shatter the world (Shadow of a man)
Shadow, don’t shatter the other land
Shadow, don’t shatter the world (Shadow of a man)
Dance in the shadow of a man
