| [00:24.96] |
Every evening when the sun goes down I sit here in my room |
| [00:31.45] |
And the lamplight shining on me projects my lonely gloom |
| [00:37.62] |
My counterpart in agony mocks each tear that falls |
| [00:44.11] |
And I cast a lonesome shadow on these lonely, lonely walls |
| [00:53.35] |
|
| [00:59.52] |
He's always by my side at night no matter where I go |
| [01:06.20] |
He lurks out in the darkness or in the neon's glow |
| [01:12.81] |
He follows me across the steps and up and down the hall |
| [01:18.62] |
And I cast a lonesome shadow on these lonely, lonely walls |
| [01:27.35] |
|
| [01:34.04] |
I sit and watch the candle and the flicker of the flame |
| [01:40.58] |
My writhing shadow twists and turns as though it is in pain |
| [01:46.89] |
I'm trying to escape the memory my heart recalls |
| [01:53.37] |
And I cast a lonesome shadow on these lonely, lonely walls |
| [02:04.42] |
|
| [02:08.73] |
The image of a love I lost and all the things I'd planned |
| [02:14.93] |
Are as empty as the bottle that I hold in my hand |
| [02:21.49] |
My soul is buried in the depths of love and life's pitfalls |
| [02:27.91] |
And I cast a lonesome shadow on these lonely, lonely walls |
| [02:35.98] |
|
| [02:43.34] |
I cast a lonesome shadow on these lonely, lonely walls |
