She was standing in the dark   Waiting in the wings   Just around the next dream   He was holdin' all the keys   To set my heart free   Behind the shadows of love      From the distance I could see   Her standing alone   Shine like a jewel in the night   Hidden from the eyes   A thief of the soul   Behind the shadows of love      Set me on fire with the stories you tell   Drown in the ocean of dreams   Close to the flame on wings of desire   Nothing's what it seems      She was waiting outside   With arms open wide   Ready to break my heart's fall   Oh the lightning in her eyes   I learned how to fly   Behind the shadow of love      Set me on fire with the stories you tell   Drown in the ocean of dreams   Close to the flame on wings of desire   Nothing's what it seems
