|
Standing in the shadows of love |
|
Waitin' for the heartaches to come |
|
Can't you see me standing in the shadows of love |
|
I getting ready for the heartaches to come |
|
I'd run but there's no where to go |
|
'Cause heartaches will follow me I know |
|
Without your love, the love I need |
|
It's the beginning of the end for me |
|
'Cause you've taken away all me reasons for livin' |
|
When you pushed aside all the love I've been giving |
|
Now wait a minute |
|
Didn't I teach you right, didn't I? |
|
Didn't I do the best I could, didn't I? |
|
So don't you leave me standin' in the shadow of love |
|
I'm gettin' ready for the heartaches to come |
|
Don't you see me standing in the shadow of love |
|
Just tryin' my best to get ready for the heartaches to come |
|
All alone I'll desperately be |
|
With misery my only company |
|
Come today, in fact come tomorrow |
|
Sorrow, I ain't got nothin' but sorrow |
|
Don't your conscience bother you |
|
How can you watch me cry after all I've done for you |
|
Now hold a minute |
|
Gave you all the love I had, didn't I? |
|
When you needed me I was there, now wasn't I? |
|
(Standing in the shadows of love |
|
Gettin' ready for the heartaches to come) |
|
I've tried not to cry out loud |
|
No gal you ain't gonna help me now |
|
What did I do to cause all this grief |
|
Now what'd I say to make you want to leave |
|
Now wait a minute |
|
I gave my heart and soul to you, didn't I? |
|
Now din't I always treat you good, didn't I? |
|
I'm Standing in the shadows of love |
|
I'm gettin' ready for the heartaches to come |
|
Hope to see you standing in the shadows of love |
|
Tryin' my best to get ready for the heartaches to come |
|
Standing in the shadows of... [Fade] |
