When the stars up in the sky
When the lights along the street
When the TVs in the mo-tel shine


When the fingertips are fro-zen
When the empty wind starts blowin'

If they've got one they're all go-ing, home

We're just sitting here, all by myself

You and me, nobody else but me
Sometimes shadows are the only light we see


Every night somebody's cryin'
Down the alley, on the cold, cold, ground
Someone's running, but they'll never, never, think


There's a shadow underneath the trees
Someone running, someone no one needs

Sometimes darkness is the only light we see

There's a shadow underneath the tree

Someone running, someone no one needs
Sometimes darkness is the only light we see
