Standing in the shadows of love I'm getting ready the heartache to come (can't you see me) Standing in the shadows of love I'm getting ready for the heartache to come
[Verse 1:] Promise me, I wouldn't cry When the time came girl to say goodbye I always knew one day we would part I always knew that you'd break my heart But that was a chance I had to take And even though I knew that it would cause me Just one look and I lost my way And if you'd ask I'd do the same again
[Chorus] Standing in the shadows of love I'm getting ready for the heartache to come (can't you see me) Standing in the shadows of I'm getting ready for the heartache to come (can't you see me)
[Verse 2] Some things in life are too good resist Opportunities that shouldn't be missed From the first time that I laid my eyes on you I knew right then I couldn't stop even if I wanted to Cause somehow you got under my My heart was locked but nothing stopped you breaking in And even now I know that we're through Over and over I just wanna you
[Chorus x2] Standing in the shadows of love I'm getting ready for the heartache to come (can't you see me) Standing in the shadows of love I'm getting ready for the heartache to come (can't see me)
[Bridge] I'm just a man with a hole in my No stars are dancing in my sky tonight Baby I need you to make this thing right I can't be alone no one more lie
[Chorus x2] Standing in the shadows of love I'm getting for the heartache to come (can't you see me) Standing in the shadows of love I'm getting ready for the heartache to come
