Shadow Of A Lonely Man Lyrics by Alan Parsons Project
Clean Lyric
Paragraph Lyric
Look at me now
A shadow of the man I used to be
Look through my eyes
And through the years of loneliness, you'll see

To the times in my life
When I could not bear to lose a simple game
And the least of it all was the fortune and the fame
But the dream seemed to end
Just as soon as it had begun, was I to know?
For the least thing of all that was on my mind
Was the close at the end of the show

The shadow of a lonely man feels nobody else
In the shadow of a lonely, lonely man
I can see myself

(Looking out of nowhere)
(Looking out of nowhere)

But the sounds of the crowds
When they come to see me now is not the same
And the jest of it all is I can't recall my name

But I'll cling to a hope 'til I can't hold on anymore, anymore
And for all the acclaim, I am all alone
And I see as I look through the door

The shadow of a lonely man, there's nobody else
In the shadow of a lonely, lonely man
I can see myself

Look at me now, a shadow of the man I used to be...
Look at me now    A shadow of the man I used to be    Look through my eyes    And through the years of loneliness, you'll see       To the times in my life    When I could not bear to lose a simple game    And the least of it all was the fortune and the fame    But the dream seemed to end    Just as soon as it had begun, was I to know?    For the least thing of all that was on my mind    Was the close at the end of the show       The shadow of a lonely man feels nobody else    In the shadow of a lonely, lonely man    I can see myself       (Looking out of nowhere)    (Looking out of nowhere)       But the sounds of the crowds    When they come to see me now is not the same    And the jest of it all is I can't recall my name       But I'll cling to a hope 'til I can't hold on anymore, anymore    And for all the acclaim, I am all alone    And I see as I look through the door       The shadow of a lonely man, there's nobody else    In the shadow of a lonely, lonely man    I can see myself       Look at me now, a shadow of the man I used to be...
