Lyrics
I know all about you
I've heard just what you do
But I've only heard the one side
The side that you left behind
It could be that I don't know
The whole thing - even so
The result of all that you did
Is that she has to live with it

Living in your shadow
Does it always have to be the same?
With so many hang-ups
What's left in her past gets in the way

I'm living in your shadow

If ever we'd have met
We might have becom friends
To share the same companion
Must mean we've things in common
But now I'm hearing daily
How she can never be free
Or forget all that happened
And that's no consolation

Living in your shadow
Does it always have to be the same?
With so many issues
What's been in her past gets in the way
Living in your shadow
Feeling repercussions every day
Maybe she'd forget you
If she'd focus on the things I say

Why were you the first
Creating all this hurt?
If I'd been there right from the start
I'd have protected and guarded her heart
But for now...

I'm living in your shadow
Does it always have to be the same?
With so many hang-ups
What's left in her past gets in the way
Living in your shadow
Knowing each and every single day
If she can forget you
Tomorrow could become today

I'm living in your shadow
