ME AND MY SHADOW

Lyrics

[Verse 1] I walk these roads beneath a fading sky, With an old guitar and a question why. Every step I take, he follows me, A silent shape that no one else can see. [Verse 2] Through dusty towns and fields of gold, He knows every story I've never told. When the night comes down and the fire burns low, He's the only friend who never lets me go. [Chorus] Me and my shadow, walking through the night, Two lonely hearts beneath the pale moonlight. Wherever I wander, wherever I go, He's always right beside me, moving slow. Me and my shadow, nowhere left to hide, Just two souls on the same old ride. [Instrumental Hook] [Electric guitar riff – blues-rock, slide guitar answering the vocal melody, Hammond swells] [Verse 3] Sometimes he's heavy like a stone in my chest, Sometimes he whispers, “You did your best.” I've tried to outrun him a thousand times, But he knows every road inside my mind. [Bridge] Maybe shadows aren't meant to disappear, Maybe they remind us why we're still here. Every scar, every dream, every broken road, Is a part of the man I carry home. [Chorus] Me and my shadow, walking through the night, Two lonely hearts beneath the pale moonlight. Wherever I wander, wherever I go, He's right beside me, moving slow. Me and my shadow, nowhere left to hide, Just two souls on the same old ride. [Psychadelic Guitar Solo] [Final Chorus] Me and my shadow, we don't walk alone, We've carried these memories wherever we've roamed. Through every sunrise, through every low, He's always been beside me..... wherever I go. Me and my shadow, now I understand, He was not behind me. He Is a part of who I am.
