Shadows

I've never been so alone
As when I'm with you
I've never seen such a dark soul
As the one you carry on
Carry on

I've lost my keys
To let you in
Even though you wait outside
The night will burn

We were black and
We were trying to be white
We were dark and
We pretended to be light

But the shadows
But the shadows are the way
To be with you, babe
To be with you, babe

But your shadows
But your shadows are the way
To be with you, babe
To be with you, babe
To be with you, babe

I'll be glaring at the door
'Til the time you come across
All my hair will turn grey
But I'll wait for that day
Will you?

Oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh
My pajama in your bed
So my smell won't let you sleep
Are you even mine to keep? Or Am I?
The kind of feel you won't forget?
As you are

But the shadows
But the shadows are the way
To be with you, babe

But your shadows
But your shadows are the way
To be with you, babe
To be with you, babe
To be with you, babe

He would dress me up in white
But I'll be painted black by night
All my songs seem so dim
Like the place you gather me
Don't you?

We were black and
We were trying to be white
We were black and...

To be with you babe
To be with you babe
