He is not my friend, but he is with me
Like a shadow is with a foot that falls
His hand is on my back when I step from the sidewalk
Or when I'm walking down these darkened halls


He's the Thin Man
With a date for me
To arrive at some point
I don't know when it will be


I can feel his eyes when I don't expect him
In the back seat of a taxi down Vestry Street
His arm is around my waist and he pulls me down to him
He whispers things into my ear that sound so sweet
(From: http://www.elyrics.net)


He's the Thin Man
With a date for me
To arrive at some point
I don't know when it will be


He is not my friend, but he is with me
And he promises a peace I never knew
I cannot give in, no, I must refuse him
But could I really be the one to resist that kiss so true


He's the Thin Man
With a date for me
To arrive at some point
I don't know when it will be
