Текст песни Bowie, David - Shadowman

Shadowman 2002 by David Bowie
 side to the CD single Slowburn

By Alan Hyde

There's a man back a-ways
Who believes at where he is

And there's a girl
Up ahead who says she knows

And the street overflows
With the folk who understand
But for the guy who can't be seen
He's the Shadow Man
And the Shadow Man is close at hand
Take a turn and see his smile
Made of nothing but loneliness
take a Boy and be a friend
To the Shadow Man

You can call him Joe, you can call him Sam
You should call and see who answers
For he promises to come running, guided by the truth
But the Shadow Man is really you

Look into his eyes and see your reflection
Look to the stars and see his eyes
He'll show you tomorrow, he'll show you the sorrows
Of what you did today

You can call him foe, you can call him friend
You should call and see who answers
For he knows your eyes are drawn
To the road ahead
And the Shadow Man is waiting round the bend
(Fade out on  &)
Oh, shadow man
Shadow man, shadow man
It's really you, it's really you, it's really you
He's the shadow man
