Standing in the shadows of love
|
I'm getting ready for the heartaches to come
|
Standing in the shadows of love
|
I'm just waitin' for the heartaches to come
|
|
I want to run but there's no place 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 taking away all my reason for living
|
When you pushed aside all the love I been giving
|
|
Didn't I treat you right now baby didn't I
|
Didn't I do the best for you now didn't I
|
Don't you leave 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
|
|
All alone I'm destined to be
|
with misery my only company
|
Might come today, might come tomorrow
|
but it's for sure I ain't got nothing but sorrow
|
Now don't your conscience kind of bother you
|
How can you watch me cry after all I done for you
|
Now hold on a minute
|
|
Didn't I treat you right now honey didn't I
|
Didn't I do the best for you now didn't I
|
So don't you leave me
|
Standing in the shadows of love
|
Getting ready for the heartaches to come
|
Standing in the shadows of love
|
I'm getting ready for the heartaches to come
|
|
I want to run but there's no place to go
|
'cause heartaches will follow me I know
|
Without your love the love that I need
|
It's the beginning of the end for me
|
Now don't your conscience kinda, kinda bother you
|
How can you watch me cry
|
after all the things I done for you
|
|
Didn't I treat you right now baby didn't I
|
Didn't I do the best for you couldn't I
|
Didn't I do right by you didn't I
|
Didn't I screw you right now
|
|
Kept you in luxury didn't I
|
Didn't I do the best for you didn't I
|
Didn't I treat you right now didn't I
|
Didn't I do the best for you now didn't I
|
|
I'm trying hard not to cry
|
You know my crying ain't gonna help me now
|
Without your love the love that I need
|
It's the beginning of the end for me
|
So don't you leave 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
