With her hand in his hand,
They were both happy again.
You started taking sides.
They started arguing.
He said it was her fault.
She said it wasn't at all.
But the [bad word] lies somewhere in the middle.

Where angels fear to tread,
You [bad word] 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.
