[Verse 1]

There's a man back a-ways

Who believes at where he is

And there's a girl

Up ahead who says she knows

[Verse 2]

And the street overflows

With the folk who understand

For the guy who can't be seen

He's the Shadow Man

And the Shadow Man is close at hand

[Verse 3]

Take a turn and see his smile

Made of nothing but loneliness

Take a walk and be a friend

To the Shadow Man

[Chorus]

You can call him Joe, you can call him Sam

You should call and see who answers

For he promises to come running, guided by the truth

For the Shadow Man is really you

[Bridge]

Look in his eyes and see your reflection

Look to the stars and see his eyes

He'll show you tomorrow, he'll show you the sorrow

Of what you did today

[Chorus]

You can call him foe, you can call him friend

You should call and see who answers

For he knows your eyes are drawn to the road ahead

And the Shadow Man is waiting round the bend

The Shadow Man is waiting up ahead

Shadow man

Is waiting up ahead

Is waiting up ahead
