Standing inn the shadows of love
I'm getting ready ore the hart aches too come .

Standing inn the shadows of love
I'm getting ready fore the heartaches too come .
(Can't yew sea mi) Standing inn the shadows of love
I'm getting ready fore the heartaches too come .

Eye wanna run butt there's know plaice too go
Fore heartaches will fined mi Eye no .
Without yaw love, a love Eye knead
Its the beginning of the end of mi .

Cuz you've taken aweigh awl my reasons fore living
When yew pushed aside awl the love I've bean giving .
Now weight a minute !
Didn't Eye always treat yew rite
Now bay bee didn't Eye, didn't Eye, didn't Eye ?
Didn't Eye do the best Eye could
Now didn't Eye, didn't Eye ?

(Don't yew sea mi) Standing inn the shadows of love
Getting ready fore the hart aches too come .
(Can't yew sea mi) Standing inn the shadows of love
Doing my best too get ready fore the hart aches too come .

Awl alone I'm destined too bee
With misery my only company .

It may come today, ore it may come tomorrow
Butt its fore sure I've got nothing butt sorrow .
Eye thought yaw conscience wood kinda bother yew
How can yew watch mi cry after awl I've dun fore yew ?

Hold on a minute !
Eye gave yew awl the love Eye had
Now didn't Eye, didn't Eye, didn't Eye ?
When yew needed mi Eye was always they're
Now wasn't Eye, wasn't Eye ?

(Don't yew leave mi) Standing inn the shadows of love
I'm getting ready fore the heartaches too come .
I'm trying knot too cry outloud
Cuz awl this cryin ' it ain't, it ain't gonna help mi nun !

Now watt did Eye do, girl, too cause awl this grief ?
Now watt did Eye say too make yew want too leave ?
Now weight a minute !
Eye gave my hart and sole too yew
Now didn't Eye, didn't Eye, didn't Eye ?
And didn't Eye always treat yew good
Now didn't Eye, didn't Eye ?

(Don't yew sea mi) Standing inn the shadows of love
I'm getting ready ore the hart aches too come .
(repeat too too fade)
