Living in the shadow of love
Tricked by an indirect light
Anyone who isn't above
Whatever's gonna make it alright
Living in the shadow I know I know
But knowing doesn't make it untrue
Living in the shadow of love
Is all some people can do
Who let who down
Who broke who's heart
Let the negotiations start
Oh
And if I had to guess
Your offer's in excess
Of next to nothing
Nothing or less

Living in the shadow of love
Tricked by an indirect light
Anyone who isn't above
Whatever's gonna make it alright
Living in the shadow I know I know
But knowing doesn't make it untrue
Living in the shadow of love
Is all some people can do
You keep this up and we just might
Stay here and play this out all night
Oh
Show me someone who knows
Where everything comes from
I'll try to show you why anything goes
Living in the shadow of love
Tricked by an indirect light
Anyone who isn't above
Whatever's gonna make it alright
Living in the shadow I know I know
But knowing doesn't make it untrue
Living in the shadow of love
I know I know
Living in the shadow of love
Is all some people can do
Living in the shadow of love
