There's a man, I want to know again
Get him to grow and then I'm gonna throw him back to you
I knew that man, he fell out of the sky
Swore that love would never die
He understood what he meant to you
Along came this boy, he liked to travel
More like wander off
Come home with the birds
Maybe sleep out in the yard
He was two arms full of noise
He's a shadow but he wants to be real
Just a shadow but he wants to be real
He's a shadow but he wants to be real again
Get some lonesome
Get some lonesome
Get some lonesome
Get some lonesome
You loved that man with everything you had and then some
Even when he was too lonesome to give back
You'd throw something on the fire
Sometimes he'd walk away
Mostly he came back but not today
No matter how you tried to pave the way
He denied his grave with you
He's a shadow but he wants to be real
Just a shadow but he wants to be real
He's a shadow but he wants to be real again
Get some lonesome
Get some lonesome
Get some lonesome
Get some lonesome
I see that man, he's playing your guitar
Wondering where you are
And the house is dark and hollow
He's a shadow but he wants to be real
Just a shadow but he wants to be real
He's a shadow but he wants to be real again
Get some lonesome
Get some lonesome
Get some lonesome
Get some lonesome
