Oh oh, yeah, yeah Down peppers the rain from a clear blue sky Down trickles a tear on a youthful face Feeling in haste and wondering why Up struggles the sun from a wounded night Out venture our hearts from their silent shrouds Trying to ignite and wondering how We can laugh, we can cry And never see the strong hand of love hidden in the shadows We can dance, we can sigh And never see the strong hand of love hidden in the shadows Oh oh, yeah yeah, in the shadows Young dreamers explode like popped balloons Some kind of emotional rodeo Learning too slow and acting too soon Time marches away like a lost platoon We gracefully age as we feel the weight Of loving too late and leaving too soon We can laugh, we can cry And never see the strong hand of love hidden in the shadows We can dance, we can sigh And never see the strong hand of love hidden in the shadows We can laugh (we can laugh), we can cry (we can cry) And never see the strong hand of love Never see the strong hand of love Never see the strong hand of love hidden in the shadows Oh oh oh
