Fly With Your Shadow Lyrics

It was on a chilly evening

A man and his shadow did wake

On hollow lane after sundown

In a chair by the fireplace

Across the road lived a woman

Mysterious and beautiful

From her house came the music

Keys to the secrets of the earth

The shadow ached for a visit

The man said no I cannot spy

The shadow lifted his parting glass

Something inside the man died

The shadow was his rebel

Fiddlin' for the devil

Fly with your shadow

Fly with your shadow

Fly with your shadow

Fly with your shadow

The man became a writer

He wrote of pearl upon pearl

Comic book character in the sunshine

But something was missing from his world

A tappin' on his door crept one midnight

There was something he secretly yearned

A gifted young prince stood on his doorstep

His shadow had returned

How did you receive your own flesh and bones

What of the woman my friend

She gave me everything the shadow replied

When she kindly took me in

Now the shadow used his skill

Low down shakin' chill

Fly with your shadow

Fly with your shadow

Fly with your shadow

Fly with your shadow

she was poetry herself said the shadow

starry-eyed and wise he revealed

I can show you Jupiter I can show you Juno

if you kindly sign this deal

Fly with your shadow

Fly with your shadow

Fly with your shadow

Fly with your shadow
