Me and My Shadow
You've stood by me throughout all these years
We've walked many a road together
In times of loneliness and despair you were always near
Together we've held our heads
Many times we've shared quiet moments
You've helped me create
We share the same joys and disapppointments
Our hearts fill the same pain
As a friend you have "literally stood behind me"
When the morning draws near you rise with me and when the day
draws to a close you lay down beside me
