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
