Four Tops - Standing In The Shadows Of Love lyrics

rate me

I'd run but there's no where to go<br />

'Cause heartaches will follow me I know<br />

Without your love, the love I need<br />

It's the beginning of the end for me<br />

<br />

'Cause you've taken away all me reasons for livin'<br />

When you pushed aside all the love I've been giving<br />

Now wait a minute<br />

<br />

Didn't I teach you right, didn't I?<br />

Didn't I do the best I could, didn't I?<br />

So don't you leave me<br />

<br />

Standin' in the shadow of love<br />

I'm gettin' ready for the heartaches to come<br />

Don't you see me standing in the shadow of love<br />

Just tryin' my best to get ready for the heartaches to come<br />

<br />

All alone I'll desperately be<br />

With misery my only company<br />

Come today, in fact come tomorrow<br />

Sorrow, I ain't got nothin' but sorrow<br />

Don't your conscience bother you<br />

How can you watch me cry after all I've done for you<br />

Now hold a minute<br />

<br />

Gave you all the love I had, didn't I?<br />

When you needed me I was there, now wasn't I?<br />

(Standing in the shadows of love<br />

Gettin' ready for the heartaches to come)<br />

I've tried not to cry out loud<br />

No gal you ain't gonna help me now<br />

What did I do to cause all this grief<br />

Now what'd I say to make you want to leave<br />

Now wait a minute<br />

I gave my heart and soul to you, didn't I?<br />

Now didn't I always treat you good, didn't I?<br />

I'm Standing in the shadows of love<br />

I'm gettin' ready for the heartaches to come<br />

Hope to see you standing in the shadows of love<br />

Tryin' my best to get ready for the heartaches to come<br />

Standing in the shadows of.........
