Me and My Shadow

Shades of night are falling and I’m lonely
Standing on the corner feeling blue
Sweethearts out for fun
Pass me by one by one
Guess I’ll wind up like I always do
With only…
Me and my shadow
Strolling down the avenue
Oh, me and my shadow
Not a soul to tell our troubles to
And when it’s twelve o’clock we climb the stairs
We never knock 'cause nobody’s there
Just me and my shadow
All alone and feeling blue
When the sun sets on the far horizon,
And the parlour lamps begin to glow
Jim and Jack and John
Put their slippers on.
They’re all set but we’re still on the go
So lonely…
Me and my shadow
Strolling down the avenue
Oh, me and my shadow
Not a soul to tell our troubles to
And when it’s twelve o’clock we climb the stairs
We never knock 'cause nobody’s there
Just me and my shadow
All alone and feeling blue
