Standing In the Shadows of Love

Standin' in the shadows of love I'm gettin' ready for the heartaches to come Can't you see me standing in the shadows of love I'm gettin' ready for the heartaches to come I want to 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're taking away all my reasons for livin' 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? So don't you leave me Standin' 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 Just tryin' my best to get ready for the heartaches to come All alone, I'm destined to be With misery, my only company It may come today, it might come tomorrow But it's for sure, I ain't got nothin' but sorrow Now don't your conscience kind of 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 there, now, wasn't I? (Standing in the shadows of love) (Gettin' ready for the heartaches to come) I'm trying hard not to cry out loud You know cryin', it 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 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 Standing in the shadows of love
