I Cast A Lonesome Shadow - Martin L. Gore

作词：Lynn Russwurm/Hank Thompson

作曲：Lynn Russwurm/Hank Thompson

Every evening when the sun goes down

I sit here in my room

And the lamplight shining on me projects

My lonely gloom

My counterpart in agony mocks each tear that falls

And I cast a lonesome shadow on these lonely

Lonely walls

He's always by my side at night

No matter where I go

He lurks out in the darkness or in the neon's glow

He follows me across the steps

And up and down the halls

And I cast a lonesome shadow on these lonely

Lonely walls

I sit and watch the candle

And the flicker of the flame

My writhing shadow twists and turns

As though it is in pain

I'm trying to escape the memory my heart recalls

And I cast a lonesome shadow on these lonely

Lonely walls

The image of a love I lost

And all the things I'd planned

Are as empty as the bottle that

I hold in my hand

My soul is buried in the depths of love

And life's pitfalls

And I cast a lonesome shadow on these lonely

Lonely walls

I cast a lonesome shadow on these lonely

Lonely walls
