I Love the song "Shadow Man" from Here at the Mayflower. I assume that it is sung by the all-seeing elevator operator. I want to know who the Shadow Man is. Who sang the song and the lyrics of the song? Can someone help me with it?

I like many others think that the shadow man is probably Barry Manilow himself, even though the song was supposed to be about the elevator operator. The lyrics are perfectly written and they make perfect sense. Shadow man has great lyric, great song, and one of my Top 20 of All Time favorites.

Lyrics of the song Shadow man by Barry Manilow: I found the lyrics of the song, they are given below.
No one knows you but they all love you Just don't let them get too much of you Careful man Don't forget you're the shadow man
Look how many believe they need you Look how many tried to read you No one can You get off on it shadow man
And so you smile your smile And fool those fools you care about You've got it all You've got the whole thing figured out Well haven't you?
Just confuse'em with smoke and static Make'em think that you enigmatic That's the plan You're the best at it shadow man
And when anyone penetrated The illusion that you created Off you ran You're too fast for them Shadow man
No emotional complication That would ruin your reputation Every fan Needs a fantasy shadow man
If they could see behind the smile And find the fear and doubt They'd turn away They'd have the whole think figured out Well wouldn't they?
No one knows you but they all love you Just don't let them get too much of you Careful man Don't you forget you're the shadow man
Every day now I see you clearer You're the mystery in the mirror Man to man Tell me what's the plan? Tell me how long can you be A shadow man
Barry Manilow was born in June 17, 1943. He is an American singer, songwriter, musician, arranger, producer, conductor, and performer. Barry Manilow is best known for such recordings as "Could It Be Magic", "Mandy", "Can't Smile Without You", and "Copacabana (At the Copa)." In 1978, five of his albums were on the best-selling charts simultaneously, a feat equaled only by Frank Sinatra, Michael Jackson, Bruce Springsteen and Johnny Mathis. He has won three straight American Music Awards for Favorite Pop/Rock Male Artist. Several well-known entertainers have given Manilow their "stamp of approval," including Sinatra, who was quoted in the 1970s regarding Manilow, "He's next." In 1988, Bob Dylan stopped Manilow at a party, hugged him and said, "Don't stop what you're doing, man. We're all inspired by you."
