SHADOWS ON THE GROUND
Deep in the dark of the night
Deep in the dark of the night
I heard a voice… and I saw a light
Deep in the dark of the night
I thought I heard somebody call my name boys
Thought I heard somebody call my name
Deep in the dark of the long lonely night
Somebody called my name
But when I looked around
When I looked around
Wasn’t nothing there but shadows on the ground
When I looked around
I thought I heard the sound of a drum
Thought I heard the sound of a drum
Deep in the dark of the long lonely night
I thought I heard a drum
Footsteps were marching in time boys
Footsteps were marching in time
Deep in the dark of the long lonely night
Footsteps marched in time
But when I looked around
When I looked around
Wasn’t nothing there but shadows on the ground
When I looked around
I guess it’s just something on the wind boys
Guess it’s just something on the wind
Deep in the dark of the long lonely night
Just something on the wind
Aint no call to be afraid boys
Aint no call to be afraid
Deep in the dark of the long lonely night
Aint no call to be afraid
‘Cos when you look around
When you look around
Won’t be nothing there but shadows on the ground
When you look around
