[Verse 1] Caught you in the hallway Eyes like an exit sign Laughing at a story I was never in this time [Pre-Chorus] Every step Your outline moves On the wall Then out of view Are you here or just a bruise I keep walking into [Chorus] You’re my shadow Always one step from my hand Right there Then you slip through my plans Turn around and you fade as I stand You’re my shadow Here when everything is bright Disappear when I need you at night Chasing you till I fall out of sight [Verse 2] Your coat on the back chair Coffee ring Your name Little things that stay here When you’re gone again [Pre-Chorus] Every joke you never send Hangs between the “how you been” Are we more than what we pretend Or a habit wearing thin [Chorus] You’re my shadow Always one step from my hand Right there Then you slip through my plans Turn around and you fade as I stand You’re my shadow Here when everything is bright Disappear when I need you at night Chasing you till I fall out of sight
