When you're out in the dark

Nothing to believe in

And you can't find a way back home

There's a man with a secret

There's a visionary sister

Who knows what's right or wrong

Little by little I turn to the light

And one day I'll be satisfied

And one day I'll be satisfied

Like the hand that rocks the cradle

I gotta be gentle and strong

I gotta be gentle and strong

The hand that rocks the cradle

Gonna be the lucky one

When the wind blows cold

And you lose your resistance

Slipping down on the darkest side

You can push too hard

You can run too fast

Don't get lost in the looking glass

Little by little the wheel turns around

And one day I'll be satisfied

And one day I'll be satisfied

Like the hand that rocks the cradle

I gotta be gentle and strong

I gotta be gentle and strong

The hand that rocks the cradle

Gonna be the lucky one

Little by little I turn to the light

And one day I'll be satisfied

And one day I'll be satisfied

Like the hand that rocks the cradle

I gotta be gentle and strong

Like the hand that rocks the cradle

Gotta be gentle and strong

Like the hand that rocks the cradle

Gotta be gentle and strong

Like the hand that rocks the cradle

Gonna be Gonna be Gonna be the lucky one
