Martin L. Gore - I Cast a Lonesome Shadow текст песни

Every evening when the sun goes down I sit here in my room

And the lamplight shining on me projects my lonely gloom

My counterpart in agony mocks each tear that falls

And I cast a lonesome shadow on these lonely, lonely walls

Hes always by my side at night no matter where I go

He lurks out in the darkness or in the neons glow

He follows me across the steps and up and down the halls

And I cast a lonesome shadow on these lonely, lonely walls

I sit and watch the candle and the flicker of the flame

My writhing shadow twists and turns as though it is in pain

Im trying to escape the memory my heart recalls

And I cast a lonesome shadow on these lonely, lonely walls

The image of a love I lost and all the things Id planned

Are as empty as the bottle that I hold in my hand

My soul is buried in the depths of love and lifes pitfalls

And I cast a lonesome shadow on these lonely, lonely walls

I cast a lonesome shadow on these lonely, lonely walls
