Lyrics:

He was a desparate manThey couldn't understandHe wanted more from lifeIt was his one deviceYeah, he fell tried and hungWhen the lights were lowYeah it was in his eyesAnd it was no surpriseThrough the streets at nightHe's smiling like no otherAs he paid againLook to find anotherStanding in the shadowsWatching the world go byStanding in the shadowsHe was lookingLooking for a place to hideHe felt this way beforeAnd knew he wanted moreHe knew the dawn would comeAnd he'd be on the runBut still they drove him onLike a loaded gunHis time was running outAnd he realized that he'd been here beforeLike a scream in the nightFor his crime they showed no pityEven though they'd done the sameIt's the way of life in the cityStanding in the shadowsWatching the world go byStanding in the shadowsHe was lookingLooking for a place to hideLock your doorsStanding in the shadowsWatching the world go byHe was standing in the shadowsLookingLooking for a placeStanding in the shadowsHe was standing in the shadowsWatching the worldStanding in the shadowsStanding in the shadowsHe was standing in the shadowsStanding in the shadowsStanding in the shadows
Dokken Standing In The Shadows
