Chorus 2
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
Verse 2:
All alone my destiny
With misery my only company
It may come today, it might come tomorrow
But it's for sure I ain't got nothing but sorrow
Now don't your conscience try to 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?
Verse 3:
(Standing in the shadows of love)
(Gettin' ready for the heartaches to come)
I'm tryin' 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 did 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?
Chorus 3
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, oh, I'm
