Keb' Mo' - My Shadow lyrics

We used to be close Always together We loved the sunshine We were real good friends Then came you A beautiful distraction And a wonderful relationship Came to an end Whatever you did The damage is done You did something That nothing and no one else could do It used to be me And my shadow But now my shadow Is following you Following you It's a mystery It don't make sense How can a shadow Be taken away But I must admit If I were my shadow Nothin' in this world Could make me stay Whatever you did The deed is done He did something I didn't have the nerve to do It used to be me And my shadow But now, my shadow Is following you, running after you I'm out in the sunshine Feeling all alone And I hope my shadow Will soon come home Whatever you did The deed is done He did something I didn't have the nerve to do It used to be me Me and my shadow But now, my shadow, oh yeah It used to be me And my shadow But now, my shadow Is following you, is following you Yeah yeah following Oh following you Oh my my my my my my my My shadow
