Hear the voices whispering
Always watchin' every move we make
Love is only black or white
And we know the chances that we take
Afraid of what they'd do
Afraid of what could happen if they knew
Bout me and you

Desperate lovers
Gotta sneak way
Gonna steal away again tonight, tonight
Desperate lovers
Gotta find a way
Always gonna find a way to hold on tight
I'd do anything to be with you
Two shadows running through the night
Desperate lovers

It's a wonder love can grow
When there's so much anger
So much fear around
But somehow we found each other
Even though we're both from
Different side of town

Don't know what they'd do, I
Don't know what would happen if they knew
Bout me and you

Spoken
Maybe someday we can be
Be together naturally, no pain, no pain
Lovin' in the light of day
Not afraid of what they're gonna do or say
Eyes that just won't see
Till the time when our hearts can be free
Cause we must be
