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 don't run, but there's nowhere to go'
Cause heartache will follow me I know
Without your love, the love I need,
It's the begining of the end for me

Taken away all my reasons for livin',
When you pushed away all the love I been givin'
Now wait a minute did'nt I treat you right now baby,
Did'nt I? did'nt I do the best I could now, did'nt I?
So don't you leave me

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

All alone I'm destined to be
With misery my only company
It might come today, it might come tomorrow
But it's for sure, I ain't got nothin' but sorrow

Now don't just talk this heart is part of you
I can do what's required after all I've done for you
Now hold on a minute, gave you all the love I had now, did'nt i?
When you needed me I was always there now, was'nt i?

(Standing in the shadows of love,
Getting ready for the heartaches to come)
I'm trying not to cry out loud no cryin',
It ain't gonna help me now

What did I do to cause all this grief
Now what I say to make you wanna leave
Now wait a minute given my heart and soul to you now, did'nt I?
Did'nt I always treat you good now, did'nt I?

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

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
