| Standing in the shadows of love
|
| I’m getting ready for the heartaches to come
|
| Can’t you see me standing in the shadows of love
|
| I’m getting ready for the heartaches to come
|
| I want to run but there’s no way to go
|
| Cause heartaches will follow me I know
|
| Without your love, a love I need
|
| It’s the beginning of the end for me
|
| Because you’ve taken away all of my reasons for living
|
| When you pushed aside all the love I’ve been giving
|
| Now wait a minute
|
| Didn’t I treat you right, now baby didn’t I
|
| Didn’t I do the best I could, now didn’t I, didn’t I?
|
| So don’t you leave me standing in the shadows of love
|
| I’m getting ready for the heartaches to come
|
| Don’t you see me standing in the shadows of love
|
| Trying the best to get ready for the heartaches to come
|
| All alone I’m destined to be
|
| With misery my only company
|
| It may come today, and it might come tomorrow
|
| But it’s for sure I’ve ain’t got nothing but sorrow
|
| Now won’t your conscience kinda bother you
|
| How can you watch me cry after all I’ve done for you?
|
| Now hold on a minute
|
| Gave you all the love I had, now didn’t I
|
| When you needed me I was always there, now wasn’t I
|
| Standing in the shadows of love
|
| Getting ready for the heartaches to come
|
| I’m trying not to cry out loud
|
| You know crying, it ain’t going to help me none
|
| What did I do to cause all this grief?
|
| Now what did I say to make you want ti leave?
|
| Now wait a minute
|
| I gave my heart and soul to you now didn’t I
|
| And didn’t I always treat you good now didn’t I
|
| Oh, I’m standing in the shadows of love |
