With her hand in his hand
They were both happy again.
You started to take sides
They started arguing
He said it was her fault
She said it wasn't at all
But the truth lies somewhere in the middle.

Where angels fear to tread you go rushing in
Well I had to tell you then
And now I'm telling you again
Stay out of this
You must not interfere
Don't you see this is
Between a man and a woman?

Every day and night I pray.
Pray that you will stay away forever.
It's so hard for love to stay together
With the modern Western pressures
I don't want to say it
But I had to tell you then
And now I'm telling you again

Stay out of this.
Oh, I know you mean to help me,
And I know you've good intentions
But stay out of this.
This isn't your problem.
Do not interfere - you are not needed here
Let the pendulum swing
Between a man and a woman
Don't you see you're in the way - between a man and a woman.
Every day and night I pray, let the pendulum swing
Between a man and a woman.
Between a man and a woman.
