Shadows on the Shades

We planned to meet here at 7 o' clock
And you come walking in at 7:18
Tell me the traffic didn't go your way
But I know where you've really been
Tried to surprise you earlier tonight
That's when I learned the truth
I came to pick you up at home but you weren't alone
I know because unlike you
Your shadow can't lie
It tells the truth that you hide
Of your wicked romance
I watched the darkness dance
You had the blinds all pulled down
But one thing you didn't think about
Is the lights were all on
And they shined like the dawn
And so you were betrayed
By the shadows on the shades

Go ahead and tell me that I've got it all wrong
It's all just a misunderstanding
I'll sit and watch you weave your web of deceit
But I ain't living in your fantasy
You can tell me that it was a mistake
Get down and beg from the floor
But the way I saw it you didn't want to stop it
I've seen what happens behind closed doors
Your shadow can't lie
It tells the truth that you hide
Of your wicked romance
I watched the darkness dance
You had the blinds all pulled down
But one thing you didn't think about
Is the lights were all on
And they shined like the dawn
And so you were betrayed
By the shadows on the shades
And it all sinks in
And the tears fill your eyes and we both know why
Cuz you're never gonna see me again
Your shadow can't lie
It tells the truth that you hide
Of your wicked romance
I watched the darkness dance
You had the blinds all pulled down
But one thing you didn't think about
Is the lights were all on
And they shined like the dawn
And so you were betrayed
By the shadows on the shades
By the shadows on the shades
By the shadows on the shades
Oh you were betrayed
By the shadows on the shades
