[Verse 1]
Scold me, that's all you've got to say
Coldly, hurt me and turn away
You say, "I'm not sorry that
I'm resigned to what is next"
I head for the shadows

[Verse 2]
Hold me, taking it back through tears
You've told me, slowly confessed your fears
But I've got myself to protect
It's too soon for me to forget
I wait in the shadows

[Bridge]
In the shadows, though I am alone
They help me see that I'm the only
One in your heart

[Verse 3]
So until I truly believe
That your words convey what you mean
I wait in the shadows
I wait in the shadows
I don't mind the shadows
