In a lonely shadow, he finds the key
|
Demanding light to set him free
|
He knows that things aren't what they always seem to mean
|
See it all in a different light
|
You know everything you heard is true
|
And I'll ride off with your soul tonight
|
If that's alright with you
|
|
I've got half a mind to make it whole
|
Make it whole again
|
And the shadow that I'm chasing is my only friend
|
And I'm sinking in the quicksand
|
Cause I never found a place to stand
|
And Lord knows, finally I'm a man
|
|
Everybody's got souls to blame
|
But the shadows keep it in ache
|
My eyes have seen the glory
|
But it's lost with every step you take
|
Finally you'll know what's wrong
|
When the gift that keeps on giving's gone
|
But in between these mountains and you
|
His soul's still trying to shine again
|
|
I've got half a mind to make it whole
|
Make it whole again
|
And the shadow that I'm chasing is my only friend
|
We're sinking in the quicksand
|
Cause I never found a place to stand
|
And, oh, finally I'm a man
|
