My Shadow

You were my shadow
My brother, my friend
My prints in the snow
My mist in the wind
Where I would go
You always went
Because you were my shadow
My brother, my friend

You were my partner
You watched every step
When I pushed on farther
You went where I led
When the journey got harder
You still looked ahead
Because you were my shadow
My brother, my friend

When I was jaded
You were naive
When I was burning
You were the ease
When it was dark
You brought me some light
When I felt wrong
You saw the right
You were the lighthouse
To many a ship
Most of all mine
On this perilous trip
The years have flown by
But it was clear in the end
That I was your shadow
Your brother, your friend
