SHADOW OF A MAN
Words & music by Johnny Kahlua
Recorded at Sundown Studio, Kristiansand in May 2010
You know I love you babe
But your love is cruel to me
Been stayin' up for days
Could I see her please
Been beggin' on my knees
Just to be her grace
Just to kiss her face
I can read it in your eyes
What your heart will not reveal
But you know I love you babe
And my love for you will never heal
Shadow of a man
Standin' in the middle, beggin' for so little
Shadow of a man
Proud like a peacock, strong like a block
Shadow of a man
Look me in the eyes, can you hear my cries
Shadow of a man
I can't understand what you doing to me
Now, I don't know, but I've been told
The gates of heaven are filled with gold
And if Jesus came;
He would pronounce your name
And advertise it 'cross his paradise
But child, you know it's late
He ain't got time for you, nor your friends
Now you better leave or you better stay
What you gonna do when you can't comprehend
Shadow of a man
Standin' in the middle, beggin' for so little
Shadow of a man
Proud like a peacock, strong like a block
Shadow of a man
Look me in the eyes, can you hear my cries
Shadow of a man
I can't understand what you doing to me
