Standing in the shadows of love
I`m getting ready for the heart aches to come.
(Can`t you see me) Standing in the shadows of love
I`m getting ready for the heartaches to come.
I wanna run but there`s no place to go
For heartaches will follow d me I know.
Without your love, a love I need
It`s the beginning of the end of me.
Cuz you`ve taken away all 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?
(Don`t you see me) Standing in the shadows of love
I`m getting ready for the heart aches to come.
(Can`t you see me) Standing in the shadows of love
Doing my best to get ready for the heart aches to come.
All alone I`m destined to be With misery my only company.
It may come today, or it may come tomorrow
But it`s for sure I`ve got nothing but sorrow.
I thought your conscience would kinda bother you
How can you watch me cry after all I`ve done for you?
Hold on a minute!
I gave you all the love I had, Now didn`t I,
When you needed me I was always there
Now wasn`t I, wasn`t I?
Standing in the shadows of love
I`m getting ready for the heartaches to come.
I`m trying not to cry outloud
Cuz all this cryin` it ain`t, it ain`t gonna
help me none!
Now what did I do, girl, to cause all this grief?
Now what did I say to make you want to 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, didn`t I?
