[Colin Blunstone, The Alan Parsons Project, John Miles - Shadow of a Lonely Man lyrics]
Look at me now
A shadow of the man I used to be
Look through my eyes and through the
Years of loneliness you'll see
To the times in my life when
I could not bear to lose, a simple game
And the least of it all was
The fortune and the fame
But the dream seemed to end just
As soon as it had begun, was I to know?
For the last thing of all
That was on my mind
Was the close at the end of the show
The shadow of a lonely man, feels nobody else
In the shadow of a lonely, lonely man
I can see myself (looking out of nowhere
Looking out of nowhere)
But the sound of the crowds when
They come to see me now, is not the same
And the jest of it all is
I can't recall my name
But I'll cling to a hope till
I can't hold on anymore, anymore
And for all the acclaim I am all alone and
I see as I look through the door
The shadow of a lonely man
There's nobody else
In the shadow of a lonely, lonely man
I can see myself
Look at me now
A shadow of the man I used to be
A shadow of the man I used to be
Look through my eyes and through the
Years of loneliness you'll see
To the times in my life when
I could not bear to lose, a simple game
And the least of it all was
The fortune and the fame
But the dream seemed to end just
As soon as it had begun, was I to know?
For the last thing of all
That was on my mind
Was the close at the end of the show
The shadow of a lonely man, feels nobody else
In the shadow of a lonely, lonely man
I can see myself (looking out of nowhere
Looking out of nowhere)
But the sound of the crowds when
They come to see me now, is not the same
And the jest of it all is
I can't recall my name
But I'll cling to a hope till
I can't hold on anymore, anymore
And for all the acclaim I am all alone and
I see as I look through the door
The shadow of a lonely man
There's nobody else
In the shadow of a lonely, lonely man
I can see myself
Look at me now
A shadow of the man I used to be
