Darden Smith Shadow lyrics

I tried anger, much denial
Life's a trial start to end
Had to travel, go through all that
Just to know that you're my friend

So I will hold you like a lover
Like a brother in the dark night
Walk beside me, be my shadow
And I won't have to be afraid

All through my younger days
I tried everything I could to get away
Here you are
You were never far

So I will hold you like a lover
Like a brother in the hard time
Walk beside me, be my shadow

And I won't have to be afraid

Thought I could fly
And I tried to leave you behind
I came down
You were still around

So I will hold you like a brother
Long lost lover in the hard night
Walk beside me, be my shadow
And I won't have to be afraid

Walk beside me, you are my shadow
And I won't have to ever be afraid
