Standing In The Shadows Of Love lyrics

Standin' in the shadow of love

I'm gettin' ready for the heartaches to come

Can't you see me standing in the shadow of love

I'm gettin' ready for the heartaches to come

I wanna run but there's nowhere 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 my reasons for livin'

When you pushed aside all the love I'd been giving

Now wait a minute

Didn't I teach you right now baby, didn't I?

Didn't I do the best I could now, didn't I?

So don't you leave me

' 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

But it's for sure I ain't got nothin' but sorrow

Don't your conscience caller bother you

How can you watch me cry after all I've done for you?

Now hold on a minute

Gave you all the love I had now, didn't I?

When you needed me I was always 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 cryin', 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 now, didn't I?

And didn't I always treat you good now, didn't I?

I'm standing in the shadows of love

I'm gettin' ready for the heartaches to come

Don't you see me standing in the shadows of love

Tryin' my best to get ready for the heartaches to come
