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 Like the hand that rocks the cradle 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 Like the hand that rocks the cradle I gotta be gentle and strong The hand that rocks the cradle Gonna be the lucky one
