Darden Smith - Shadow lyrics

I tried anger, much denial Life's a trial, start to end Had to travel, go through all that Just to know that you're my friend So I will hold you like a lover Like a brother in the dark night Walk beside me, be my shadow And I won't have to be afraid All through my younger days I tried everything I could to get away Here you are You were never far So I will hold you like a lover Like a brother in the hard time Walk beside me, be my shadow And I won't have to be afraid I thought I could fly And I tried to leave you behind I came down You were still around So I will hold you like a brother Long lost lover in the hard night Walk beside me, be my shadow And I won't have to be afraid Walk beside me, you are my shadow And I won't have to ever be afraid
