Pull Me Out Of Your Shadow

You bought me ten piano's, baby
And the sunlight from the moon
You'd promise I could manage, baby
      While you fed me with your spoon   
                
I had to leave you every ounce of me
Every stone of my heart
You left me nothing but misery
Left me empty from the start

Pull me out of your shadow, baby
Don't you know you're too much for me
Please step aside and look behind you, baby
And let the sunlight carry me
And let the sunlight set me free

Wet are the stones of love-street
Where I settled down in pain
I left my heart on the corner, baby
In that cold and empty street
Dropped every girl in the hole, baby
Of my body and soul
Every girl I did ever meet, baby 
I left empty from the start

Wet are the stones of love-street
It's a cold and empty place
Wet are the stones of love-street
It's a cold and empty street

But I gat tough, the tougher, the toughest
Here is your lover on his knees
I get the hard, the harder, the hardest
I am the one that cannot please
I am the one that cannot please
It's you’re lover on his knees

And the black, the blacker, the blackest
I am the hate, the hater, the hatest
I am the poor, the poorer, the poorest
Like a lost and lonely tourist
Gat no money, no vacation
Frightened off by destination
Frightened off by destination

You left me nothing but misery
Left me empty from the start
I had to leave you every ounce of me
Every stone of my heart

Pull me out of your shadow, baby
Don't you know you're too big for me
Please step aside and look behind you, baby
And let the sunlight carry me
And let the sunlight set me free

Shiver, shiver my body, 
shiver, shaking, shaking my skin
when that sunlight hits me, baby
I will shiver like my begin
I will shiver like the begin
