Walking in the Shadow of the Blues (Whitesnake)

Walking in the Shadow of the Blues (Coverdale/Marsden)

I love the blues,
They tell my story,
If you don’t feel it you can never understand
So many times I thought about it
And now I know just what it means to be a man

Everyday I realize you can see it in my eyes
I never wait, or hesitate.
‘Cos I love the life I live,
I’m gonna live the life I choose,
You gotta understand
I’m walking in the shadow of the blues

All of my life I’ve had a strange reputation,
I’ve been the black sheep of the family all along
I never know if in my heart I’m really guilty
But, I’ve been accused of never knowing right from wrong

Everyday I realize you can see it in my eyes
I never wait, or hesitate.
‘Cos I love the life I live,
I’m gonna live the life I choose,
You gotta understand
I’m walking in the shadow of the blues

My father said you’re crazy,
He said what you gonna do?
I left with my guitar and said
I’ll leave it up to you

I’m gonna live the life I love
And live the life I choose,
And I’m walking in the shadow of the blues

I love the blues,
They tell my story,
If you don’t feel it I will tell you once again
All of my life I’ve been caught up in a crossfire,
‘Cos I’ve been branded with the devil mark of cain

Everyday I realize you can see it in my eyes
I never wait, or hesitate.
‘Cos I love the life I live,
I’m gonna live the life I choose,
You gotta understand
I’m walking in the shadow of the blues,
I’m walking in the shadow of the blues

Victim of Love (Whitesnake)

Victim of Love (Coverdale)

I’m down on love
An’ I don’t give a damn,
I take my chances
Whenever I can
Like a lamb to the slaughter,
Another sacrifice,
For giving love to woman
With a heart stone cold as ice

I’m down on love
An’ I’m clean out of pain,
I ain’t no stranger
To the crying game
Too scared to suffer,
An’ too blind to see,
But, I played with fire
An’ I got what was coming to me

Now, one more heartache
Don’t bother me,
Just one more lonely night
To drown in misery

I am a victim of love,
A victim of love,
Lord, I never thought
I’d be a victim of love
Victim of love, victim of love,
Lord, I never thought
I’d be a victim of love

I’m down on love
An’ I feel like a fool
To beg for mercy
‘Cos I broke the rules
So do me no favours
With your cool advice,
I know the losing cost,
An’ I’ll pay the price

One more heartache
Don’t bother me
One more lonely night
To drown in misery

I am a victim of love,
A victim of love,
Lord, I never thought
I’d be a victim of love

Victim of love,
A victim of love,
Lord, I never thought
I’d be a victim of love

One more heartache
Don’t bother me
One more lonely night
To drown in misery

Victim of love,
A victim of love,
Lord, I never thought
I’d be a victim of love...

The Deeper the Love (Whitesnake)

The Deeper the Love (Coverdale/Vandenberg)

When I look back
On everything I’ve done
I know you must have cried
A river of tears,
But, you were there
When I was feeling low
To walk me through my darkest fears

So when the sun goes down
An’ those nights grow colder,
I will be there
Looking over your shoulder

An’ the deeper the love
The stronger the emotion,
An’ the stronger the love
The deeper the devotion

There were times
I almost let you go
When I thought I needed to break free,
But you were there
To whisper in my ear
Why don’t you share your dreams with me.

So when the sun goes down
An those nights are growing colder
I will be there
Looking over your shoulder.

An’ the deeper the love
The stronger the emotion,
An’ the stronger the love
The deeper the devotion

I don’t mind, what you’re doing to me,
I don’t mind, ‘cause you’re all I can see
I don’t mind, baby, you mean the world to me

When the sun goes down
An’ those nights are growing colder,
I will be there
Looking over your shoulder, baby, baby, baby.

So When the sun goes down
An’ those nights are growing colder,
I will be there
Looking over your shoulder.

‘Cause the deeper the love
The stronger the emotion,
An’ the stronger the love
The deeper the devotion...

I never gonna let you go,
In my heart, I know.
I love you, I love you.
Oh baby, I really love you...

Still of the Night (Whitesnake)

Still of the Night

In the Still of the Night
I hear the wolf howl, honey
Sniffing around your door
In the Still of the Night
I feel my heart beating heavy
Telling me I gotta have more

In the shadow of night
I see the full moon rise
Telling me what’s in store,
My heart starts aching
My body started shaking
And I can’t take no more, no, no

Now I just wanna get close to you
And taste your love so sweet
And I just wanna make love to you
Feel your body heat...

In the Still of the Night...
In the Still of the Night...
Over here baby...

In the heat of the day
I hang my head down low
And hide my face from the sun
Through the light of the day
Until the evening time
I’m waiting for the night to come, ooh, baby

In the Still of the Night,
In the cool moonlight,
I feel my heart is aching
In the Still of the Night...

Oooh Baby, Oooh baby

Solo

In the Still of the Night
I hear the wolf howl, honey
Sniffing around your door...
In the Still of the Night
I feel my heart beating heavy
Telling me I gotta have more...
Oooh, mama

Now I just wanna get close to you
And taste your love so sweet
And I just wanna make love to you
Feel your body heat.

In the Still of the Night...
In the Still of the Night...
In the Still of the Night...
In the Still of the Night...

Still of the Night,
Still of the Night,
Still of the Night...

Still of the Night,
Still of the Night,
Still of the Night...

Still of the Night,
Still of the Night,
Still of the Night...

Still of the Night,
Still of the Night,
Still of the Night...

Standing in the Shadow (Whitesnake)

Standing in the Shadow (Coverdale)

I’m running away from a feeling
Hiding my face in the sand
I’m scared to love and lose again
I don’t know if I can
I don’t need the night to remind me
Where the lonely people go
I try running away from love
But, my heart keeps telling me no

Too many people
Standing in the shadow of love
Too many people
Are standing in the shadow
Standing in the shadow of love

I’ve been living so long in the darkness
I know the cold embrace of the night,
When morning comes I close my eyes
‘Cos I’m blinded with the light
Taking a chance of a feeling
Is like waiting for a flower to grow,
So I stand at the crossroad, baby,
Wondering which way to go

Too many people
Standing in the shadow of love
Too many people
Are standing in the shadow.
Standing in the shadow of love

I’m running away from a feeling,
Hiding my face in the sand
I’m scared to love and lose again
I don’t know if I can
I don’t need the night to remind me
Where the lonely people go
I try running away from love
But, my heart keeps telling me no

Too many people
Standing in the shadow of love,
Too Many people
Are standing in the shadow,
Standing in the shadow of love...
