Long Shadow Lyrics

There's a pain in my chest and it ain't from the whiskey

It's burning right through my poor soul

I've got a head full of steam and a gut full of hurting

And a habit that's making me old

I cast a long shadow as I go on my way

Dragging my feet on the road

Something that I needed but I never could say

And now I'm out here on my own

I cast a long shadow

I walk a long road

Gathering time wherever I go

But I needed something that you just couldn't know

I needed you

There's a hole in my heart and cloud up above me

A rain that will wash me away

I'm down on my knees, I'm not one for praying

But I pray for somebody today

I cast a long shadow as I go on my way

Dragging my feet on the road

Something I needed but I never could say

And now I'm out here on my own

I cast a long shadow

I walk a long road

Gathering time wherever I go

But I needed something that you just couldn't know

I needed you

You make me whole

I cast a long shadow as I go on my way

Dragging my feet on the road

There was something I needed but I never could say

And now I'm out here on my own
