SHADOW
You say you wanted everything else
What you had was never enough to show
I know it’s not a design you conceived
But you learned to view it as your own
You’ve got to be easier on yourself
To break out of this mold
And no one can make you understand
(That) time passes for all
(CHORUS)
You move, won’t settle
You leave the cats in the cradle
So smooth, but fatal
Never seen hands so idle
No, so
You’re such a hard act to follow
Don’t lose it, or fold it
Better hang onto your shadow
You say they promised the end of the world
Before you had the time to make your stand
I know your fortunes had you believe
It’s better not to make than make it plain
You’ve got to expect to be much less
To learn how to be whole
But nothing can make you understand
(That) time passes for all
(CHORUS)
Just another superstar
Just another superstar
You’ve got to expect to be much less
To learn how to be whole
But nothing can make you understand
(That) time passes
