[Verse 1: Peter, Chorus]
When gentle sways
Into the coming night
A guiding light appears
To lead me home
My days are spent with
Thoughts of loving you
Gonna reach out
And wanting you
Gonna reach out
What else can I do
Tell me, girl
Reach out your hand
To the one you love
Reach out your hand
To the one you love
And the one you love
Is always close at hand
To hold you day and night
To hold you day and night
And be your guiding light

[Verse 2: Peter, Chorus]
If all your worries
Seem to get you down
Reach out, reach out
You gotta reach out
Don't wear a frown
Don't you worry bout a thing
Reach out, reach out
You gotta reach out
When troubles come
Gotta reach out
I'm there to comfort you
Gonna reach out
To take care of you
Gotta reach out
I'll be your everything
[Verse 3: Peter, Chorus]
Come on
Reach out your hand
To the one you love
Reach out your hand
To the one you love
To the one you love
Is always close at hand
To hold you day and night
To hold you day and night
And make the darkness bright

[Bridge: Lady vocals]
Can you tell me why
This one particular guy
Has got a hold on me
(Ooo-ooo)
To guide my destiny
(Oo-ooo-ooo)
He saved my life
(Oo-oo-ooo)

[Outro: Chorus]
Reach out your hand
To the one you love
Reach out your hand
To the one you love
Reach out your hand
To the one you love
Reach out your hand
To the one you love
