I was standing on the road of despair
And I figured that nobody cared
Something passed over me from above
And I was standing in the shadows of love
Yeah, yeah, standing in the shadow of love

And I knew that at last I was free
And I figured that you'd soon come to me
The cloud that passed over me from above
Had me standing in the shadows of love
Standing in the shadow of love

Well, my heart felt lighter and things looked brighter
Then I knew that you had answered my prayer
I would never forget the day that we met
Your eyes told me you were willing to share

A love that will never grow old
A love that will never grow cold
Won't you take my hand, let's walk this land
Into the shadows of love, ooh
Standing in the shadow of love

Well, my heart felt lighter and things looked brighter
Then I knew that you had answered my prayer
I would never forget the day that we met
Your eyes told me you were willing to share

A love that will never grow old
A love that will never grow cold
Won't you take my hand, let's walk this land
Into the shadows of love
Oh, into the shadow of love

Walk with me into the shadow of love
Into the shadow of love
Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Into the shadow of love
