Shadow Lover

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

'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

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

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

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)
