Shadow Lover

[Verse 1]
I've been sleeping alone
Holding close my pillow tight
Hoping that you’ll come home
And love me, baby, all night
And sometimes in my darkest hours
I wake up and I scream out your name
And I wonder why that when I'm sleeping
All alone, it's just myself who’s to blame
Oh, baby

[Chorus]
'Cause I've been making love to a shadow
(Shadow love)
Sleeping in my bed all alone at night
(Shadow love)
Making love to a shadow
Shadow love is alright
Shadow lover
Shadow love is alright
Shadow lover

[Verse 2]
I've been holding on tight
Sitting by the telephone
Hoping that you will call me
And I don't have to be alone
And in my loneliness I linger lost
And lying in my bed, I am crying
And all the wasteful tears I shed
How can I blame myself for you for not trying
Oh, my baby

[Chorus]
I've been making love to a shadow
(Shadow love)
Sleeping in my bed all alone at night
(Shadow love)
Making love to a shadow
Shadow love is alright
Shadow lover
Oh, I've been making love to a shadow
(Shadow love)
Sleeping in my bed all alone at night
(Shadow love)
Making love to a shadow
It's alright, shadow lover
I’ve been making love to a shadow
(Making love, making love to my shadow)
(Shadow love)
Sleeping in my bed all alone at night
(Sleeping in, sleeping in my bed alone at night)
(Shadow love)
Making love to a shadow
(Making love, making love to my shadow)
It’s alright, shadow love
It's alright, shadow lover

[Outro]
I’ve been making love, oh-whoa...
(To a shadow)
In my bed at night all alone at night
(To a shadow)
I've been making love, oh-whoa...
(To a shadow)
In my bed at night all alone at night
(To a shadow)
