Lyrics:

I've been standing in the shadows of love
Hiding from the sun up above
Wondering if my heart
Would ever feel the spark
And say - I've finally had enough
I've been standing in the shadows of love

I built a wall of the stones I'd swallowed
Stones of fear and pride
I built it tall so no one could follow
And bother me inside
I lived my life in that wall's shade
I hid behind the games I played
But now it's time to make my getaway

Chorus

I used to have such a mean reputation
I was cold and cruel
When I walked into a new situation
I knew just what to do
I thought this world was full of fools
Except for me, who could play it cool
I played cold, I almost froze
Until I met you

Chorus
