Shadow Of Your Love
Took my chances carelessly
choked on my own cigarette
You can hand me another bottle of whiskey baby
but you aint seen the worst yet
Now I'm reckless, gonna have some fun
and the woman who is dead
who was out alnight, no I'm not the only one
And I ain't standing, never standing
in the shadow of your love
shadow of your love
shadow of your love
shadow of your love
Wrote my changes helplessly
yeah but I got no regrets
Money it was on the table
so I booked with all the bets
Living like a lemon aint so hot
and you aint my idea
of one high-rollin' shot
No I ain't standing, never standing
Chorus
Big dark clouds hanging over your head
hope you've heard, baby all I've said
You've been told, what I've said
No use crying, you're as good as dead
Now I'm reckless, gonna have some fun
and the woman who is dead, who is out alright
now I'm not the only one
And I ain't standing, never standing
Chorus

Standin In My Light
(ian hunter)
Well I finally found you out
All through your mess of dreams
You wont make it to the night
And your standing in my light
You know youve been bad for me
You aint got the weight to hate
But you aint no pretty sight
And your standing in my light
Move over cause your standing in my light
Move over cause your standing in my light
Move over cause your standing in my light (yeah)
Move over cause your standing in my light
Now when your old man beats the drums
Gotta run run run thats dumb
A little less ego a little more fight
Move over cause your standing in my light
Things go bad and the risks get high
Sweeping dead bodies cross an open sky
You took my pictures from your walls
Aint gonna trade with the pain of the new york dolls
Move over cause your standin in my

Cause I knew you blew it at the song and dance
You froze my feelings, but thats alright
And your standing in my light

Standing On The Outside
I aint livin here no more, I aint even keepin score
Its too late to change, its over, Im drownin in a sea of tears
Nothin I can say to you makes any difference
There aint nothin I can do, none of its makin sense
Chorus:
Standing on the outside - Im lookin in at you - standing on the outside
Standing on the outside - Im running out of time - standing on the outside
Im so tired of bein alone in a world that feels so cold
Theres got to be a light that I can find
Theres got to be a soul somewhere that shines for me
Now I dont want to live without love anymore, I just wanna live my life
Loves gonna open up the door, show me its light again
(chorus)
Nothin I can say to you makes any difference
There aint nothin I can do, none of its makin sense
Standing on the outside - Im lookin in at you - standing on the outside
Standing on the outside - what can I do - standing on the outside
Standing on the outside - Im lookin in at you
Standing on the outside - yes Im lookin in at you
Standing on the outside - Im lookin in at you... (to fade)

Standing In The Shadow
(coverdale)
Im running away from a feeling
Hiding my face in the sand
Im scared to love and lose again
I dont know if I can
I dont need the night to remind me
Where the lonely people go
I try running away from love
But, my heart keeps telling me no
Too many people
Standing in the shadow of love
Too many people
Are standing in the shadow
Standing in the shadow of love
Ive been living so long in the darkness
I know the cold embrace of the night,
When morning comes I close my eyes
cos Im blinded with the light
Taking a chance of a feeling
Is like waiting for a flower to grow,
So I stand at the crossroad, baby,
Wondering which way to go
Too many people
Standing in the shadow of love
Too many people
Are standing in the shadow.
Standing in the shadow of love
Im running away from a feeling,
Hiding my face in the sand
Im scared to love and lose again
I dont know if I can
I dont need the night to remind me
Where the lonely people go
I try running away from love
But, my heart keeps telling me no
Too many people
Standing in the shadow of love,
Too many people
Are standing in the shadow,
Standing in the shadow of love...

Shot Down In Flames
(yow! one, two)
Out on the town, looking for a woman
Gonna give me good love
Anybody want to hang out with me?
And maybe burn me up?
She was standing alone over by the jukebox
Like shes something to sell
I said, baby whats the going price?
She told me to go to hell
Chorus:
Shot down in flames
Shot down in flames
Aint it a shame
To be shot down in flames
Singles bar, got my eye on a honey
Hanging out everywhere
She might be straight
She minds on her money [she might [want my | got no | run for] money](? )
I really dont care, no
Said, baby, youre driving me crazy
Layed it out on the line.
When a guy with a chip on his shoulder said
Toss off buddy shes mine
Oh!
Chorus
Hey you angus, shoot me, shoot
Thats nice, wow! uh! oh! oh! wooooh!

Dont want to be shot down in flames

Standing In For Joe
Im standing, standing in for joe
Joe called round to ask me, would I do a favor?
While hes gonna be out of town
He says his girl needs company, she gets so restless
Would I keep her safe and sound?
Softly, softly in the night
Why, you can guess the rest...
Now these shoes fit all too well
Standing in for joe
Standing in for joe
Im standing - in for joe
Joe said weve been friends so long
That I would be the one he would trust with his life
And now those words roll round my brain
As darkness falls, as I turn out his bedroom light
Who could resist her tender charms?
So the story goes...
This actor he plays all the parts
Standing in for joe
Standing in for joe
Im standing - in for joe
Love is like a river,
You cannot stop its flow... mmm hmm
Joe called round to ask me, would I do a favor?

Would I check that shes safe and sound?
Softly, softly in the night

Im standing in for joe - oh yeah
Im standing in for joe - keep his sweetheart company, yeah
Standing in for joe - just standing in for joe, yeah
Standing in for joe - until he gets back home, yeah
Standing in for joe - gonna keep her insane, yeah
Standing in for joe - gonna keep her safe and sound, yeah
Standing in for joe - keep his sweetheart company, yeah
Standing in for joe - almost full time, which is nice, yeah
Standing in for joe - because she gets so restless
Standing in for joe - always so restless
Standing in for joe - keep his sweetheart company, yeah
Standing in for joe - gonna keep her safe and sound, yeah

Standing In The Shadows Of Love
(eddie holland / lamont dozier / brian holland)
Standing in the shadows of love
Im getting ready for the heartaches to come
Standing in the shadows of love
Im just waitin for the heartaches to come
I want to run but theres no place to go
cause heartaches will follow me I know
Without your love the love I need
Its the beginning of the end for me
cause youve taking away all my reason for living
When you pushed aside all the love I been giving
Didnt I treat you right now baby didnt i
Didnt I do the best for you now didnt i
Dont you leave me
Standing in the shadows of love
Im getting ready for the heartaches to come
Standing in the shadows of love
Im getting ready for the heartaches to come
All alone Im destined to be
With misery my only company
Might come today, might come tomorrow
But its for sure I aint got nothing but sorrow
Now dont your conscience kind of bother you
How can you watch me cry after all I done for you
Now hold on a minute
Didnt I treat you right now honey didnt i
Didnt I do the best for you now didnt i
So dont you leave me
Standing in the shadows of love
Getting ready for the heartaches to come
Standing in the shadows of love
Im getting ready for the heartaches to come

Without your love the love that I need
Its the beginning of the end for me
Now dont your conscience kinda, kinda bother you
How can you watch me cry
After all the things I done for you
Didnt I treat you right now baby didnt i
Didnt I do the best for you couldnt i
Didnt I do right by you didnt i
Didnt I screw you right now
Kept you in luxury didnt i
Didnt I do the best for you didnt i
Didnt I treat you right now didnt i
Didnt I do the best for you now didnt i
Im trying hard not to cry
You know my crying aint gonna help me now
Without your love the love that I need
Its the beginning of the end for me
So dont you leave me

Same Old Blues
(by eric clapton)
Im sorry baby, but I cant afford to stay.
Your good, kind treatment will worry me someday.
I love you baby, but Im gonna have to say goodbye.
Woman, I got to move, I really got to fly.
Same thing every morning,
Tell me whats it all about.
I get those same old blues every night.
I miss you already, baby, more than words can say.
Seems like Ive been gone twenty-four hours, more like a million days.
I love you baby, you know I woudnt tell you no lies.
If you dont believe I love you, look at the tears standing in my eyes.
Chorus
Here I am back home, baby, Im back home to stay.
I love you babe, never more will I go away.
I wont hurt you no more, baby, aint gonna tell you no more lies.
No more running round, no more phony alibis.

Standing There In The Rain
Standing there in the rain
crying through the pain
Standing there in the rain
its so dark no one thought
Standing there in the rain
i watch how all disappears
Standing there in the rain
i dropped to my knees
Standing there in the rain
no strenght to believe again
Standing there in the rain
i wish i can breath again
Standing there in the rain
Im no longer there
Standing there in the rain
wish i knew what to do
Standing there in the rain
the dark is waiting for me
Standing there in the rain
im getting stronger
No longer screaming
no longer believing
Standing there in the rain
i see someone staring
Standing there in the rain
its when the war began....

Heart Like A Wheel
In the days of confusion
Youve turned angry and cold
You say its an ilusion
Theres no fire in your soul
Say you dont love me
Say you dont care
But dont leave me standing here
Your hears like a wheel
Just waiting to roll
Its longing for freedom
To get out on the road
Youre hungry for something
That you may never find
So many reasons
Your love has made you blind
You say you dont love me
You say you dont care
So dont leave me standing here
Dont leave me standing here
You say you dont love me
You say you dont care
Dont leave me
Dont leave me standing here
Life aint been easy
Full of passion and pain
Told me no reason
Why I was to blame
Dont leave me standing
Dont leave me standing
Dont leave me standing
On my own

Dreamtime
I saw you standing and I felt your rage
Like a dark cloud on a crowded stage
You were talking thru the smoke in your fantasy
I know you girl I know what to believe
Maybe things aint been so good at home
And the people that you love never cared at all
You wanna run away dont care where you go
You wanna run away thats all you know
Believe its alright to fantasize
And say the words you think will satisfy me
But you know better than that
cause you know whats a lie
Youre living in dreamtime baby
Its time to wake up
Youre living in dreamtime baby
Its time to shape up
In your dream its overcast
Rain comes down movin your way fast
You wanna run away dont care where you go
You wanna run away thats all you know
Turn a corner then you see a door
Walk on thru throw yourself on the floor
When youre looking up its no surprise
Standing there is a man with movie star eyes
Think hes gonna take care of you
The man with the plan thatll see you thru
I say there aint no way
cause I know hes a lie
Youre living in dreamtime baby
Its time to wake up
Youre living in dreamtime baby
Its time to shape up
I never saw anybody fall apart so fast
Living in dreamtime you know it aint gonna last
Never saw anybody think shes so right and be so wrong
Living in dreamtime
Its hard to carry on

The Woman I Love
I'm tired of foolin' around
I'm trying hard but I'm no Clark Gable
There's something I wanna say
Here are my cards on the table
The woman I love has eyes of blue
A face like heaven and a body like you
The woman I love is standing next to me
These words don't come easily
These words are a stranger in my town
But I am what I wanna be
Forget the high-brow here's the low-down
chorus x2
It's funny how it never seems
To be the time or place
I can tell it to the world
But I can't tell it to your face
I got a secret I don't want anymore
I'd tell you about it but I'm too damn yellow
What does it matter if you walk out that door
What's to lose baby What the hell

I Still Believe In You
(Written by Vince Gill and John Barlow Jarvis)
Everybody wants a little piece of my time
But still I put you at the end of the line
How it breaks my heart to cause you this pain
To see the tears you cry falling like rain
Give me the chance to prove
And I'll make it up to you
I still believe in you
With a love that will always be, yeah
Standing so strong and true
Baby, I still believe in you and me
You know I believe in you, baby
Somewhere along the way, I guess I lost my track
Only thinking of myself, never looking back
For all the times I hurt you, I apologize
I'm sorry it took so long to finally realize
Give me the chance to prove
That nothing's worth losing you
I still believe in you
With a love that will always be, yeah
Standing so strong and true
Baby, I still believe in you and me
You see, I believe in you, baby
I believe in you
I still believe...
I still believe in you
With a love that will always be, yeah
Standing so strong and true
Baby, I still believe in... I still believe in you
(I still believe in you)
(With a love that will always be)
(Standing so strong and true)
(Baby, I still believe in you and me) You make me feel so good
(I still believe in you) I believe in you, I believe in you
(With a love that will always be) You know I do

Oh, Brother
Im not much for making little wishes
But Id like a little wish to come true for you
Im not talking about loaves and fishes
But I wish that there was something I could do for you
Heres a little bit of cheap advice
To be taken in an hour of need
Dont assume that the life you left
Is the life you have to lead
(chorus)
When you come home what you gonna do
Oh brother, oh brother
Dont you try to deny
What you know to be true
The same mess of misery that you done been through
Standing in line
And its waiting for you
One kiss leads to another
Brother when you come back home
Id like to know whos knocking on door
Id like to know what they come here for
Youd like to say no
But the words wont come
Come in and sit down, seem to roll off your tongue
You forget to remember, to never die young
One kiss leads to another
Brother when you come back home
Standing in line, all of your friends
Standing in line, party never ends
Standing in line, the river flows, the river bends
Standing in line, all of your friends
- chorus -
And that moon will be
Shining in the trees
All night long
Something bound to happen for sure
Soon youll be
Stopping by talking to a friend again
Swear you aint never tasted nothing so pure
- chorus -
When you come home, your friends are dropping by
When you come home, the moon is gonna shine
When you come home, I tell you no lie
When you come home, theyre gonna offer you a line
Standing in line, all of your friends
Standing in line, party never ends now
Standing in line, the river flows, the river bends
Standing in line, all your so called friends
Standing in line, when you come home
Standing in line, oh brother, oh brother now
Standing in line, when you come home
Standing in line, what youre gonna do now

In The Evening
(jones/page/plant)
In the evening, when the day is done
Im looking for a woman, but the girl dont come
So dont let her, play you for a fool
She dont show no pity baby, she dont make no rules
*chorus: oh, oh, I need your love, I need your love
Oh, I need your love, I just got to have
So dont you let her, oh, get under your skin
Its only bad luck and trouble, from the day that you begin
I hear you crying in the darkness, dont ask nobodys help
Aint no pockets full of mercy baby, cause you can only blame yourself
Chorus
Oh its simple, all the pain that you go through
You can turn away from fortune, fortune, cause thats all thats left to you
Its lonely at the bottom, man, its dizzy at the top
But if youre standing in the middle, aint no way youre gonna stop
Chorus
Oh whatever that your days may bring
No use hiding in a corner, cause that wont change a thing
If youre dancing in the doldrums, one day soon, its got to stop, its got to stop
When youre the master of the off-chance, when you dont expect a lot

Like I Love You
Why do lovers drift apart
How does love fade away
When do pieces of a broken heart mend again
Youve been crying in the dark
And youve been feeling alone
Dont be scared of what youll find
When you turn the light on
Aint nobody gonna say goodbye
Aint nobody gonna walk away
This time, baby, Im learning how to love you, love you
Aint nobody gonna make you cry
Aint nobody ever really tried to love
Like I love you
What sad memory of yesterday
What terrible scar
Keeps you gathering pieces of
Your shattered heart
There was once upon a time
When hope was living within
I know there will come a time
When you can believe again
(chorus)
How long have you been feeling lost and lonely
How long have you been sad and blue
This time, baby, Im learning how to love you, love you
Aint nobody gonna make you cry
Aint nobody ever really tried to love
Like I love you
This time, baby, Im learning how to love you, love you
Let me love you, like I love you

Say, say, say what you want,
But dont play games with my affection.
Take, take, take what you need,
But dont leave me with no direction.
All alone, I sit home by the phone,
Waiting for you, baby.
Through the years,
How can you stand to hear,
My pleading for you dear?
You know Im crying ooh ooh ooh ooh.
Go, go, go where you want,
But dont leave me here forever.
You, you, you stay away,
So long girl, I see you never.
What can I do
Girl to get through to you?
Cause I love you baby.
Standing here, baptisted in all my tears,
Baby through the years,
You know Im crying ooh ooh ooh ooh.
You never worry,
And you never shed a tear.
You saying that my love aint real,
Just look at my face,
These tears aint drying
You, you, you can never say,
That Im not the one who really loves you.
I pray, pray, pray every day
That youll see things, girl like I do.
What can I do girl, to get through to you? cause I love you baby.
Standing here baptised in all my tears, baby through the years,
You know Im crying, ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh
