Strong Hand of Love

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 but 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

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
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
Never see the strong hand of love
Never see the strong hand of love
Hidden in the shadows
