Leslie Phillips - Hiding in the Shadows Lyrics

It's been a while
Since she's felt she could look someone in the eye
Quite a while
Since she's felt the strength to even try

And all of her sins are piled
Like a tower of doom
And no one knows
She's not what they assume

'Cause she's been hiding in the shadows
Of a lie
Hiding in the shadows
You can die

So sincere
No one could have doubted where she stood
But through the years
Only her intentions remained good

And like an actress
Typecast in a picture perfect part
She played a role
But it wasn't from the heart

And now she's hiding in the shadows
Of a lie
Hiding in the shadows
You can die

It only gets harder
To tell the truth
And one lie
Is never enough

It may be hard to admit
You've failed him now and then
But healing comes
When his light illuminates your sin

And people might reject you
When the truth is hard to bear
But failure is the one thing
We all share

So don't go hiding in the shadows
Of a lie
Consider hiding in the shadows
You can die

Hiding in the shadows
Of a lie
Consider hiding in the shadows
You can die

Hiding in the shadows
Hiding in the shadows
Hiding in the shadows
Hiding in the shadows

Hiding in the shadows
Hiding in the shadows
Hiding in the shadows
