Waiting In the Shadows In The Dead Of Night Lyrics
It's like barbed wire, this crucial touch
That draws me near, expects so much
No disregard will tie me down
'Cause I will be waiting, waiting for us
When we're 50 or 60
She'll leave me completely
And one of us will coldly hold the other's hand
No metaphor for this that I can understand
Show me
It's like barbed wire, this crucial touch
That draws me near, expects so much
No disregard will tie me down
'Cause I will be waiting
We'll be waiting in the shadows in the dead of night
I will be waiting in the shadows in the dead of the night
I will be waiting in the shadows in the dead of the night
We'll be waiting in the shadows in the dead of night
I will be waiting in the shadows in the dead of the night
We'll be waiting in the shadows in the dead of night
I will be waiting in the shadows in the dead of the night
We'll be waiting in the shadows in the dead of night
So hold me
And sway me
Remember me daily
'Cause all that will remain of us is photographs
No metaphor for this that I could understand
Show me
It's like barbed wire, this crucial touch
That draws me near, expects so much
No disregard will tie me down
'Cause I will be waiting
I will be waiting in the shadows in the dead of the night
I will be waiting in the shadows in the dead of the night
I will be waiting in the shadows in the dead of the night
We'll be waiting in the shadows in the dead of night
I will be waiting in the shadows in the dead of the night
We'll be waiting in the shadows in the dead of night
I will be waiting in the shadows in the dead of the night
I will be waiting in the shadows in the dead of the night
It's like barbed wire
That holds me near
No disregard will tie me down
'Cause I will be waiting, waiting for us
That draws me near, expects so much
No disregard will tie me down
'Cause I will be waiting, waiting for us
She'll leave me completely
And one of us will coldly hold the other's hand
No metaphor for this that I can understand
It's like barbed wire, this crucial touch
That draws me near, expects so much
No disregard will tie me down
'Cause I will be waiting
I will be waiting in the shadows in the dead of the night
I will be waiting in the shadows in the dead of the night
We'll be waiting in the shadows in the dead of night
I will be waiting in the shadows in the dead of the night
We'll be waiting in the shadows in the dead of night
I will be waiting in the shadows in the dead of the night
We'll be waiting in the shadows in the dead of night
And sway me
Remember me daily
'Cause all that will remain of us is photographs
No metaphor for this that I could understand
Show me
That draws me near, expects so much
No disregard will tie me down
'Cause I will be waiting
I will be waiting in the shadows in the dead of the night
I will be waiting in the shadows in the dead of the night
We'll be waiting in the shadows in the dead of night
I will be waiting in the shadows in the dead of the night
We'll be waiting in the shadows in the dead of night
I will be waiting in the shadows in the dead of the night
I will be waiting in the shadows in the dead of the night
That holds me near
No disregard will tie me down
'Cause I will be waiting, waiting for us

Many lyrics sites have the lyrics going "its like a fire" or "its like a wire"......but I think song meanings has it right with the above..., thats why they are my fave. Anyways, surprised there arent any comments yet on this song! This band is such a hidden gem....I bet they will be pretty popular soon. This album is gold.
I think the song is basically obvious and saying he is held down by someone he loves and he is sincere and will always be waiting for her. =love
The band keeps a blog on their site that occasionally explains some of their songs and how they were made. Here's the link for this song: http://www.littlecomets.com/shadows/
