Look at me now, a shadow of the man |
|
I used to be |
|
Look through my eyes and through the years of lonliness you'll see |
|
To the times in my life when |
|
I could not stand to lose, a simple game |
|
And the least of it all was the fortune and the fame |
|
But the dream seemed to end just as soon as it had begun, was |
|
I to know? |
|
For the least thing of all that was on my mind, was the close at the end of the show |
|
The shadow of a lonely man, feels nobody else |
|
In the shadow of a lonely, lonely man |
|
I can see myself (Looking out of nowhere, looking out of nowhere) |
|
But the sounds of the crowds when they come to see me now, is not the same |
|
And the jest of it all is |
|
I can't recall my name |
|
But I'll cling to a hope till |
|
I can't hold on anymore, anymore |
|
And for all the acclaim |
|
I am all alone and |
|
I see as I look through the door |
|
The shadow of a lonely man, there's nobody else |
|
In the shadow of a lonely, lonely man |
|
I can see myself |
|
Look at me now, a shadow of the man |
|
I used to be |
