[Intro]
Tape's rolling, take one

[Verse 1]
Took my changes carelessly
I said, I choked on my own cigarette
You can hand me another bottle of whiskey, baby
But ya' haven't seen the worst yet

[Pre-Chorus]
Now I'm reckless
Gonna have some fun
I had a woman who had said it was all alright
Now I'm back the only one

[Chorus]
And I'm standin', no, I'm not standin'
In the shadow of your love
Shadow of your love, no-no-no
Shadow of your love, never again
Shadow of your love, oh no

[Verse 2]
Stole my changes helplessly, I said, yeah, but I got no regrets
Money it was on the table so I booked with all the bets
Livin' like you're livin' ain't so hot
And you ain't my idea of a rolling shot
[Chorus]
And I'm standin', no, I'm not standin'
In the shadow of your love
Shadow of your love, no-no-no
Shadow of your love, never again
Shadow of your love, oh no

[Guitar Solo]

[Verse 3]
High price callin' hanging over your head
I hope you've heard, baby, all I've said
You've gone cold or even misread
No use crying, you're as good as dead

[Pre-Chorus]
Now I'm reckless
Gonna have some fun
I had a woman who had said it was all alright
Now I'm back the only one

[Chorus]
And I'm standin', no, I'm not standin'
In the shadow of your love
Shadow of your love
Shadow of your love
Shadow of your love, no-no-no
Shadow of your love, never again
[Outro]
Shadow, shadow
Shadow of your love
Oh no
