Standing in the shadows of love
I'm getting ready or the heartaches to come
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 wanna run but there's no place to go
'Cause heartaches will find me I know
Without your love, the love I need
It's the beginning of the end of me
'Cause 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, didn't I?
Didn't I do the best I could
Now didn't I, didn't I?
(Don't you leave me) standing in the shadows of love
Getting ready for the heart aches to come
Can't you see me standing in the shadows of love?
I'm tryin' my best to get ready for the heart aches to come
