[Verse 1]
Live my life like a runaway
I hide my dreams in a special place
I'm waiting here for my prince to come
To save me from the darkness
I count the nights, I count the days
The ways, yeah
Don't wanna fight, it would be in vain
So in vain, so in vain

[Chorus]
I can run, but I can't hide
It's because I'm living in the shadow of love
Yeah, yeah
To me, you are the only one I dream of
I'm living in the shadow of love

[Verse 2]
Your love surrounds me, it's everywhere
It is my shelter, it is my air
A moon eclipse and a burning sun
Make a shade just for me
For you, I wait forever and a day
Yes I would
To be there if your love should come my way
My way

[Chorus]
I can run, but I can't hide
It's because I'm living in the shadow of love
Yeah, yeah
To me, you are the only one I dream of
I'm living in the shadow of love

[Bridge]
Too many nights, too many days
I've hidden from the sun
And though I've tried to break away
Your hold on me is just too strong
I love you in the shadow of love

[Chorus]
I can run, but I can't hide
It's because I'm living in the shadow of love
Yeah, yeah
To me you are the only one I dream of
I am living in the shadow of love

[Outro]
It's because... living in the shadow of love
Shadow of love, yeah
I can run, but I can't hide
It's because... the shadow of love
Shadow of love
