I am your shadow, ever near,
Without you, I am nothing here.
I am your shadow, softly cast,
Without you, my name fades fast.
I am your shadow, holding fast.
Through lifetimes, you, my constant guide,
What was mine? Why did I hide?
Your love, a beacon, brought me near,
I am your shadow, banishing fear,
Without you, my name disappears.
I am your shadow, year by year.
Without you, life, a thirsty plea,
Like wind that seeks the boundless sea.
Burning, burning, blackened now,
I am your shadow, taking the vow,
Without you, my name cannot bow,
I am your shadow, here and now.
