<b>orchids have to grow in the dark</b> by <i>Margriet Eshuijs</i><br />You're standing in the corner, not knowing what to do

Staring at the prima-donna,wishing so hard it was you

And you wonder how to get there,what's the secret in her eyes

It takes time

It's getting close to midnight,you feel the tension too

Watching all those cruising slick guys,but they don't come up to you

And so you hide that great desire ,that is burning deep inside

It takes time

It takes time to cross the border between a dream and what is real

Like a flower you 'll grow older and your beauty be revealed

So don't you worry it will happen don't let it change the way you are

Orchids have to grow in the dark

Pretty people on the dance floor,excitement everywhere

Is this what you really longed for,'cause no-one seems to know you're there

They don't see how much you want to,change the darkness for the light

It takes time

It takes time to cross the border between a dream and what is real

Like a flower you 'll grow older and your beauty be revealed

So don't you worry it will happen don't let it change the way you are

Orchids have to grow in the dark

It takes time to cross that border oh i know just how you feel

'Cause i've been there now that i'm older i can say the dream gets real

So don't you worry it will happen you will be that shining star

Orchids have to grow in the dark

But it takes time oeh......it takes time
