SHADOW OF TIME/NIGHTNOISE

A treat for the weekend.


I heard this song several times and loved the beautiful tune and singing.  I wanted to really listen to what the words were which led me to You Tube, and I thought I'd share it with you today.

Have you done this?   Lots of times I've sung songs not really knowing what the words were and what the whole song meant. I'd be in my own world having fun with the music and melody, so after I found the song I found the words below.  

Listen and then look at the words. What does it mean to you?  Enjoy!





I see a strange man
Running silently
He never looks behind him
He has no time to see
He makes no sound, he has no voice
The ground he doesn't feel
But he's always on the run
And I wonder if he's real

Chorus:
Run on, run on, shadow of time
Run on, run on, shadow of time

His first name is today
His last name is tomorrow
He knows no pain, he knows no joy
He doesn't think of sorrow
Fast and small, he's slow and tall
He never stops to rest
But I know where he's goin'
'Cause I know him the best

(Chorus 2x)
