Shades of night are falling and I’m lonely
Standing on the corner feeling blue
Sweethearts out for fun, pass me one by one
Guess I’ll wind up like I always do, with only
Me and my shadow
Strolling down the avenue
Me and my shadow
Not a soul to tell our troubles to
And when it’s twelve o’clock, we climb the stair
We never knock, cause nobody’s there
Just me and my shadow
All alone and feeling blue
Me and my shadow
Strolling down the avenue
And when it’s twelve o’clock, we climb the stair
We never knock, for nobody’s there
Just me and my shadow
Strolling down the avenue
All alone and feeling blue
