[00:00.00]I Cast A Lonesome Shadow - Hank Thompson
[00:13.33]Every evening
[00:14.42]When the sun goes down
[00:16.07]I sit here in my room
[00:19.06]And the lamplight streaming over me
[00:21.83]Projects my lonely gloom
[00:24.53]My counterpart in agony mocks
[00:28.10]Each tear that falls
[00:30.11]And I cast a lonesome shadow
[00:32.68]On these lonely
[00:34.19]Lonely walls
[00:40.11]He's always by my side at night
[00:42.88]No matter where I go
[00:45.62]He lurks out in the darkness
[00:48.29]Or in the neon's glow
[00:51.20]He follows me across the steps
[00:54.13]And up and down the hall
[00:56.46]And I cast a lonesome shadow
[00:59.16]On these lonely lonely walls
[01:12.15]I sit and watch the candle
[01:14.69]And the flicker of the flame
[01:17.72]My writhing shadow's twisting
[01:20.48]As though it is in pain
[01:23.30]I'm trying to forget the memory
[01:26.80]My heart recalls
[01:28.93]And I cast a lonesome shadow
[01:31.43]On these lonely
[01:32.86]Lonely walls
[01:39.08]Everything I hope for
[01:41.44]And all the things I'd planned
[01:44.23]Are as empty as this bottle
[01:47.02]That I hold in my hand
[01:49.82]I'm buried in the depths of love
[01:53.19]And life's pitfalls
[01:55.54]And I cast a lonesome shadow
[01:57.94]On these lonely
[01:59.44]Lonely walls
[02:03.05]I cast a lonesome shadow
[02:12.63]On these lonely
[02:15.54]Lonely walls
