The Shadow of Love

Don't be when you stand in the shadow of love
The hour is late and you know that time waits for no one
See the door when it's about to swing both ways
See the answer that's mirrored in her gaze
Then you know that you're caught in the shadow of love

A brief embrace and fear and restraint have all gone
Innocence burned yes a fire that burned all along
See the answer mirrored in her gaze
See the doors about to swing both ways
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 when you stand in the shadow of love
Play the game take a chance or you haven't the power of love

See the glow of that girl's soul in her face
See the glow of that girl's saving veil of grace
Then you know that you're caught in the shadow of love
You're caught in the shadow of love
