She was standing in the dark Waiting in the wings Just around the next dream He was holdin' all the keys To set my heart free Behind the shadows of love From the distance I could see Her standing alone Shine like a j**el in the night Hidden from the eyes A thief of the soul Behind the shadows of love Set me on fire with the stories you tell Drown in the ocean of dreams Close to the flame on wings of desire Nothing's what it seems She was waiting outside With arms open wide Ready to break my heart's fall Oh the lightning in her eyes I learned how to fly Behind the shadow of love
