Songtexte The Shadow Of A Lady - June Carter Cash

She was standing on a corner with her suitcase in her hand
She held her head up high as she turned from a man
Tears fell from her eyes but they couldn′t hide the shame
Sir I think You know me but just let me explain.

I took my light down from the door Sir
I don't work here anymore Sir
You′re standing in the shadow of a lady
From the life that I've been living
Now freedom I've been given
And you′re standing in the shadow of a lady

Don′t say the things you think were true
That was someone else you knew
Don't you know you could be held for liable?
Tell me Sir do You know where I might find a bible

As he thumbled in his pocket to return his money there
And he shis head in wonder and ran his fingers through his hair
And he wondered what had happened to his red light pearl
Must have been another woman must have been another world

I took my light down from the door Sir
I don′t work here anymore Sir
You're standing in the shadow of a lady
From the life that I′ve been living
Now freedom I've been given
And You′re standing in the shadow of a lady

Don't say the things You think were true
That was someone else you knew
Don't You know You could be held for liable?
Tell me Sir do You know where I might find a bible
