Shadow Lover Lyrics

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

Cause I've been making love to a shadow
Sleeping in my bed
All alone at night
Making love to a shadow
Shadow lover's all right

Shadow lover
Shadow love, shadow love
Shadow lover's all right
Shadow lover
Shadow love, shadow love
Shadow lover's all right

I've been holding on tight
Sitting by the telephone
Hoping that you would call me
And I don't have to be alone

And in my loneliness
I think that I'm lost
Laying in my bed
I am crying
And all those wastfull tears
I shed
How can I blame myself for you for not trying

Cause I've been making love to a shadow
Sleeping in my bed
All alone at night
Making love to a shadow
Shadow lover's all right
