Every now and then sadness overflows And I get swept away in a tide of woes Looking for a hand that won't let go So when I'm down and out it'll search for me When I don't like what it is in the world I see I'll look into your heart and there I'll be Looking for a friend who'll stand by me Then I feel your love I feel your love And all this darkness disappearing I know I'm nearing the end Of a dead end dream Every once in awhile our doubts get loud 'Til everything bright and gay turns inside out Looking for a hand I'm feeling around So when I'm down for the count it'll search for me When I don't like what it is in the mirror I see I'll look into your eyes and there I'll be Looking for a hand that won't break free Then I feel your love I feel your love And all this sadness disappearing I know I'm nearing the end Of a dead end dream When our eyes are downcast We may fail to see Or realize that we have All the love that we need Looking for a hand that won't let go Then I feel your love I feel your love And all this darkness disappearing I know I'm nearing the end Of a dead end dream Nearing the end of a dead end dream Nearing the end of a dead end dream
