Is this one of the incarnations of Blackadder?

Okay, this will be a hard one, partly because the opening was always instrumental and the sung version was only used occasionally over the closing credits for part of the show's run--and it's a fairly obscure show, but where the title fits in should help:

Seems as though a harmony is hard to find,
Always on my mind
And frustrated days pass without sight:
(Show Title),
Half dark, half light

I think this one will need a few clues. First, here is the entire song:

Seem as though a harmony
Is hard to find
Always on my mind.
And frustrated days
Pass without sight.
(Show Title),
Half dark, half light.
As we watch our hearts
Trying to hold a tenderness
That we once had
Halfway glad, and halfway sad.
(Show Title),
Half dark, half light.
And do you think we might wake up some day?
And be aware of all the games people play.
Living circles of unending strife,
As we look for life.
And nothing's wrong, and nothing's right.
(Show Title),
Half dark, half light.
Watching all the lonely hearts
Passing out of sight.
(Show Title).

Not even close.

This was a very long-running program. It went off the air in 1984.

Hmmm....knowing your viewing habits as I do, this just might be...The Edge of Night?

It is indeed a theme song use by the long-running soap opera The Edge of Night in the '70s and '80s.

Here is a montage of clips from the show with the original version of the sung version of this theme.


Here is the original version over the closing credits, though not the entire song.

This clip shows a remix of the theme used with closing credits. The preceding scene also shows Lori Loughlin's first appearance on the show, which was her first major role.

And here is a montage of the various opening themes, none of which used the lyrics. The last several versions are instrumental versions of the same piece, though the original theme, used in the first two clips, is probably better remembered.

Take it, Lardy! [Big Grin]

There's a time for love
And a time for livin'
So take a chance and face the wind.
An open road
And a road that's hidden.
A brand new life around the bend.

That makes so much more sense.

I always thought it was "an open road and a road that's hip", like - you could do the easy, expected thing... or do something cool.
