Hey my friendly shadow, I like the way you move

You always seem so happy just going with the groove.

In your steps I wander, where I otherwise could not

I'd like to have the courage to step without a thought.



Shadow, when you're dreaming, do you stray into the light?

I hope you know I miss you, in the dark depths of the night

Only when you’re near I feel so high and tall

As the night comes in, you leave then I feel so damn small



My shadow always follows me

I wonder what it would be like if it would take the lead

Shadow show me how to be

Show me what it could be like just to live inside your light



You laugh so large it shakes me, I learn to lose my frown

Feeling free and flowing and never slowing down

I look to you all day long, and follow where you fade

To mornings home where all your steps will proudly be displayed



Your words are little thunder, which whisper in our storm

A silent exclamation that's hidden in my norm

nothing like a brother, who keeps you feeling free

When I step with power is when you step with me.



My shadow always follows me

I wonder what it would be like if it would take the lead

Shadow show me how to be

Show me what it could be like just to live inside your light
