Sometimes he sees her walking by.
+5 -6 -7 +7 -7 -6 +6 -6
He never looks her in the eye.
-6 +7 -8 +8 +8 -8 +7 -8
She doesn't know, she doesn't care,
-8 +7 -7 -7 -6
what he is feeling.

+5 -6 -7 +7 -7 -6 +6 -6
And as she turns to walk aw-ay,
-6 -7 +7 -7 -6 +6 +5
there is nothing he can say.
-6 +7 -8 +8
She doesn't know.
+8 -8 +7 -8
Why should she care?
+6 +9 -9 +8 +8 -8 -8 -8
When he's alone, she's never there,
-8 +8 +9
to see him

-10 +9 +9 +8 +9 -10
Cry-ing in the shadows
+9 -9 +8 -8 -8 +7 -6
of a love he used to know,
-6 +8 -9 +9 +8 -8
but now it's all ov-er.
-10 +9 +9 +8 +9 -10
Crying in the shadows
+9 -9 +8 -8 -8 +7 -6
of someone he called his own,
-6 +8 -9 +8 +7 -8 +7 -6
but now he's all alone again.

Sometimes she sees him walking by.

He doesn't know, he doesn't care,

+6 +9 -9 +8 +8 -8 -8 -8
When she's alone, he's never there.
-8 +8 +9
He leaves her

-10 +9 +9 +8 +9 -10
Crying in the shadows

of a love she used to know,
-6 +8 -9 +9 +8 -8
but now it's all ov-er.

Crying in the shadows

of someone she called her own,
-6 +8 -9 +8 +7 -8 +7 -6
but now she's all alone again.

-6 +7 -8 +8 -8 -8 +7 -8 +7 -6
Well, he can see it in her eyes.
-6 +7 -8 +8 -8 -8 +7 -8 -6
And she can feel it in her heart.
-6 +7 -8 +8 -8 -8 +7 -8 -6
Yes, they can feel it in their hearts.
-6 +8 -8 -8 +9 +8
It's tearing them apart.
-10 +9 +8 -10 +9 +8 -10
Ov--er and ov--er again.

-10 +9 +9 +8 +9 -10
Crying in the shadows
+9 -9 +8 -8 -8 +7 -6
of a love he used to know,
-6 +8 -9 +9 +8 -8
but now it's all ov-er.
