In the shadows, you've got to know your lover mostly by feel

You've got to put your faith in things you can touch

If you dare to



Cos the shadows, can make you crazy with the things they reveal

They show it all without revealing too much

Scare the hell out of you



Chorus

Cos me and my love, live among the shadows

Where the old playground is an alley way

Now me and my love, make love among the shadows

When the sun goes down, in a dark hallway

Love in the shadows where the crowd never goes

Deep in the shadows where flowers won't grow

Me and my baby know, love in the shadows



In the shadows, you've got to work at love to get it to shine

You can't believe in everything that you see

Not this time around



Cos the shadows, can play a half a million tricks on your mind

You try your best but you can never be free

It just kinda drags you down



Cos me and my love, live among the shadows

Where the old playground is an alley way

Now me and my love, make love among the shadows

When the sun goes down, in a dark hallway

Love in the shadows where the crowd never goes

Deep in the shadows where flowers won't grow

Me and my baby know, love in the shadows
