| It’s like a showdown at Beverly Terrace
|
| Perhaps a movie filmed in 1949

| Even for a week or two down by the bay
|
| Now don’t be embarrassed

| Of the well upholstered times from another day

| Living in the shadow of love
|
| Is all some people can do
|
| Living in the shadow, I know, I know
|
| But knowing doesn’t make it untrue
|
| Living in the shadow of love |
