[Verse 1]
Love come, light up the shadows
Let the beauty of you enter in
I have hungered for a tender touch
A long and lonely time

[Verse 2]
I've seen much more than I want to
So much anger, so much pain
A line is drawn and lives are torn apart
The wounds too hard to heal

[Chorus]
Love has taken me in, lifted my load
And in this empty place a wonder grows
A dream of some kind of peace I could hold up as true
Never knew anything about love before you

[Verse 3]
You call and I come running
I can sense the flood before it breaks
And I'll do anything to dry your tears
To let you know you're safe

[Chorus]
Love has taken me in, lifted my load
And in this empty place a wonder grows
A dream of some kind of peace I could hold up as true
Never knew anything about love before you
[Verse 4]
Love come, light up the shadows
Let me drink the beauty of you in
For I have hungered for a tender touch
A long and lonely time
