Only a Shadow Lyrics

A twinkle of stars

That's where you are

And only at night

Can I see your eyes

And since you've been gone

I've tried not to

Be so alone

I've made some new friends

Even date some now and then

But they're

Only a shadow

Only a shadow

Of the one I love

Only a shadow

Of the one I'm dreaming of

So I'm in New York

Spending Christmas alone

The energy here's in the air

I thought I saw you walking by

Union Square

But it was

Only a shadow

Only a shadow the one I love

Only a shadow

Of the one I'm

Dreaming of

I'm high as a cloud

You know my book is finally

Coming out

It made me write all the time

Feeling your presence

Come through the lines

So I guess I can be proud

I guess I can say that

I made it somehow

They got my name up on a shelf

I guess I can say I made a name

For myself but it was

Only a shadow

Only a shadow of the one I love

Only a shadow

Of the one I'm dreaming of

Only a shadow

Only a shadow of the one I love

Only a shadow

Of the one I'm dreaming of
