Skeeter Davis - Standing in the Shadows lyrics

rate me

(Ray Price)

When you're walking down the isle with your new love by your side

I'll be standing in the shadows watching you

When you say your sacred vows I'll repeat them with you too

But I'll be standing in the shadows watching you.

I remember all the times you whispered you were mine

As I watch her take my place with you

When the rice begins to fly I throw a kiss as you go by

I'll be standing in the shadows watching you.

--- Instrumental ---

When her mother starts to cry I stand and watch my dreams all die

I'll be standing in the shadows watching you

When they give the brighter way then I know you're gone to stay

I'll be standing in the shadows watching you.

I remember all the times you whispered dear you're mine

As I watch her take my place with you

When the rice begins to fly I throw a kiss as you go by

I'll be standing in the shadows watching you...
