Lyrics
They were under the spell of falsehoods - Using solutions right for the time - and the hope in the heart of the youngbloods - hung on the wind like a chime.
They never knew what hit them - when the truth came on the line - there was a spark and a blinding flash - and they were back in some bygone time.
Chorus: She took the lead from him - he took the lead from her - and pretty soon ya know - niether of them - knew where in the hell they were.
They were under the spell of falsehoods - wondering who knew what - and the hope in the heart of the young bloods - got suppressed by what they got.
There was laughter and there was sadness - as they went on down the years - then one of them said - hey, what's this all about - and back came all of the fears.
Chorus
They werew under the spell of falsehoods - waiting for it all to come true - but the hope in the heart of the youngbloods = got stopped by not pushing through.
They never knew what hit them = when the truth came on the line - looking back in anger - at the fruit - almost withered on the vine.
Chorus.
