They dragged Jack and his shadow
From the hole
And the bulb that burned above him
Did shine both day and night
And his shadow learned to love his
Little darks and greater light
And the sun it shined
And the sun it shined
And the sun it shined
A little longer
(A little stronger)
Jack wept and kissed his shadow "Goodbye"
Spat from their dirty dungeons
Into a fully different din
Shat from their institutions
Into a truly different din
And his shadow soon became a wife
And children plagued his latter life
Until one night he took a skinning knife
And stole into the town
And Jack tracked his shadow down
Said the shadow to Jack Henry
"What's wrong?"
Jack said "Our home is not a hole"
"And shadow, you're just a gallow that I hang my body from"
"Oh Shadow, you're a shackle from which my time is never done"
Then he peeled his shadow off in strips
He peeled his shadow off in strips
Then he kneeled his shadow on some steps
And cried "What have I done?"
Yeah, and the sun it shined
Oh, the sun it shined
I say "Love is blind"
"And is it any wonder?"
"Is it any wonder?"
Jack and his damned shadow
Is gone
And though each one of us are want to duly mourn
Yes, and though each one of us are want to duly mourn
'Tis done in brighter corners now
'Tis done in brighter corners now
It's done in the brighter corners now
That Jack's black shadow is gone
Yeah, Jack's black shadow is gone
Yeah, and the sun it shines
I said sun it shines
Yeah and the sun it shined
(A little stronger) is it any wonder?
Is it wonder that? (Is it any wonder?)
Love is blind
I said "Love is blind"
I said "Love is blind"
And a little stronger
A little stronger
It's done in brighter corners now
'Tis done in brighter corners now
'Tis done in brighter corners now
Now that Jack's black shadow's gone
Yeah, Jack's black shadow's gone
And I swear love is blind
Yeah, love is blind
Yeah, love is blind
And who can blame our bloody blunders
Yeah, yeah, yeah
Oh, the sun it shines
Oh, the sun it shined
The sun it shined
But when I can't remember
(I can't remember)
But it's done in brighter corners now
It's done in the brighter corners now
Yeah, done in the brighter corners now
Done in the brighter corners now
Done in the brighter corners now
Now that Jack's black shadow's gone
That Jack's black shadow's gone
That Jack's black shadow's gone
That Jack's black shadow's gone
That Jack's black shadow's gone
They dragged Jack and his shadow
From the hole
And the bulb that burned above him
Did shine both day and night
And his shadow learned to love his
Little darks and greater light
And the sun it shined
And the sun it shined
And the sun it shined
A little longer
