Lyrics

In the Shadow
 
In the shadow, in the shadow something new is stirring
In the shadow of the evening something new occurring
As the light is getting dimmer they come out to play
In the shadow of the evening we must fade away
 
See the dancers pirouetting softly on the ground
See the dancers now caressing, they may take your hand
From the shadow, from the shadow they come out to play
In the shadow of the evening we must fade away
 
Hear the music gently floating, rising through the air
Hear the music, major, minor, nothing is so fair
From the shadow, from the shadow they come out to play
In the shadow of the evening we must fade away
 
In the darkness of the night time nothing can be seen
In the darkness of the night time dancers leave the green
All is silent, all so peaceful, ‘fore we go to sleep
Love the shadow of the evening seven days a week
 
In the shadow, in the shadow find yourself a-dancing
In the shadow of the evening night time is advancing
As the light is fading faster, fall under the spell
Spinning round above the ground with the tinkerbell
