Píseň: Shadows of a Big Man
- Interpret:
- Chris Rea
- Album:
- The Blue Cafe
Oh you've been so long In the shadows of the big man How long can you take it How far can you go Don't you know how strong In the shadows of the big man While he smiles in the sunlight You can die in the cold Spend your life, In the shadows of the big man Sell your wife and children, if it made him smile How long can you take it, or do you really need it! Oh standing in the shadws, the shadows of the big man And you'd love all the world to see How you break your chains and set yourself free And all you got to do is walk away Walk away from the shadows of the big man
