Lyrics

Derek Ted

Shadow

From Day Went Away2024

Lyrics

Shadow

[Chorus]

Shadow, my only friend, my always enemy

Why do I run from you when you're always here with me?

[Verse]

When everyone else comes and everyone else leaves

It's always me and my shadow

It's always my shadow, my shadow and me

[Non-Lyrical Vocals]

[Chorus]

Shadow, my only friend, my always enemy

Why do I run from you when you're always here with me?
