Don't be afraid to stand in the shadow of love The hour is late and you know that time waits for no-one
See the glow of the soul in her face Then you know that you're caught in the shadow of love
A brief embrace and fear and restraint have all gone Innocence burns yes a fire that burned all along
See the doors about to swing both ways See the answer mirrored in her gaze Then you know that you're caught in the shadow of love
Every night, every day I experience the most exquisite pain A thousand whispers seem to say I light a candle to you and I pray I kneel to pray
Now don't be afraid to get caught in the shadow of love Play the game take a chance or you haven't the power of love
See the glow of a soul in her face See the glow of her saving veil of grace Then you know that you're caught in the shadow of love You're caught in the shadow of love
