In light of all I've learned so far
I don't believe I'm so strange
In spite of all this time I spend
Calling the air by a nameWhen the first light comes over the trees
He will be singing with me
And if I feel like singing alone
He always lets me beI'm shaking my shadow hand
As the sun moves round the bend
With an imaginary man
And we'll make believe around and around againThere's a man walking around in the night
A lantern in his hand
Looking all around, searching in vain
For an honest manIn my little world of make-believe
I talk to myself or my friend
If real life comes tempting me
I'll go back in my room againI'm shaking my shadow hand
As the sun moves round the bend
With an imaginary man
And we'll make believe around and around againSo nice to pretend, think I'll do it again
No cards to send, no torn heart to mend
A little imagination and then
A world of fantasy with my friendsI'm shaking my shadow hand
As the sun moves round the bend
With an imaginary man
And we'll make believe around and around again
