John Miles with Alan Parsons
Look at me now, a shadow of the man I used to be.
Look through my eyes, and through the years of lonliness you'll see,
To the times in my life when I couldn't bear to lose a simple game.
And the least of it all was the fortune and the fame.
But the dream seemed to end just as soon as it had begun,
Was I to know
For the last thing of all that was on my mind
Was the close at the end of the show.

Shadow of a lonely man
Feels nobody else.
In the shadow of a lonely, lonely man
I can see myself.

Looking out of nowhere,
Looking out of nowhere.
But the sound of the crowds when they come to see me now is not the same,
And the jest of it all is that I can't recall my name.
But I'll cling to a hope till I can't hold on anymore, anymore,
And for all the acclaim I am alone and I see as I look through the door

Shadow of a lonely man
There's nobody else,
In the shadow of a lonely, lonely man
I can see myself.

Look at me now,
A shadow of the man I used to be.
