Bent Van Looy - Shadow Of A Man lyrics

rate me

I am but a shadow of a man

I live by the grace of your land

I slide over your pillow

By sunrise I'll be gone

Maybe if you wait I will come there

Some nights I live under the stairs

If someone leaves the lights on

In the down stairs hall

Don't try to chase me

You would never understand

Don't try to change me

What I am is what I am

I'm just a presence you can't see

Only in your mirror I appear

And gently you look through me

As if I weren't here

Don't try to change me

You would never understand

Don't try to change me

What I am is what I am

I rely on memories

Shadow dancing in the dark

By the lamplight down the street

Right behind you as you are

And when you're wide awake I'm back

Just remember you once said

The one you want the most

Is the hardest to be had

Don't try to chase me

You would never understand

Don't try to change me

What I am is what I am

Don't try to change me

Don't try to change me

Don't try to change me

Don't try to change me
