Lyrics by Howard Anshell
I come in the red light of the
Setting sun,
On the other side of the Twylyte One,
I’m going to bring you the message he sends—
I’m doing the best that I can!
Watch out,
‘Cause your mind ain’t safe—
You know I just might give it a whirl—
I don’t need no
Incantation!
I don’t need no
Charms or spells
I’m gonna leave your heart in
Palpitations;
And I’m the only one in the world—
I’m the shadow of the Twylyte One!
If you look over your shoulder, you might
Catch me in the wind,
But you’ve only got a second to see,
‘Cause the Twylyte One’s out in front,
But way in the back,
There’s me!
I’m gonna start your insides to
Itching—
You’ll wonder why you can’t
Clear your mind!
You’re gonna cry in excitation,
As you sense
You’re not quite
Swell;
But if you try for a
Confrontation,
I‘m always just a step
Behind –
I’m the shadow of the Twylyte One!
At the top of your twylyte dream,
Just when you’re getting ready to start.
You just might catch me in between.
As quick as a silent spark!
I’m going to eat up all your emotions,
Make my breakfast out of your brain!
If you feel that hesitation,
If you’re sure you just can’t tell,
If you’re stuck in contemplation,
Then you’ll know I’m at work again—
I’m the shadow of the Twylyte One!
