Shadows

lyrics

I was standing in the shadows of a man
Twice as tall as I am
I wasn’t listening to a word
That you said
I was feeling kind of tired
When you walked in that door
I was still sleeping soundly
When you left in the morning
We were staring blankly into the eyes
Of the sun
I was seeing shadows in the back
Of my mind
There were people standing all around
Pointing fingers at me
They were looking kind of funny towards me
But I don’t care anymore
I was tugging harshly on your heart
With my tongue
You showed resistance like the queen
Of the night
Gradually you surrendered all that you had
To me
And I took advantage like Iago’s twisted mind
Oh baby
Why why why would you let me do such a thing?
To you
You you you knew that I was new to this thing
Called love
Still ten thousand men couldn’t keep me from winning
Your heart over
Like a sailor’s wind bringing your boat in
From the sea to my shores
