I've been thinking about our fortune
And I've decided that we're really not to blame
For the love that's deep inside us now

Is still the same

And the sound we make together

Is the music to the story in your eyes
It's been shining down upon me now
I realize


Listen to the tide slowly turning
Wash all our heartaches away

We're part of the fire that is burning
And from the ashes we can build another day


But I'm frightened for your children
That the life that we are living is in vain
And the sunshine we've been waiting for

Will turn to rain

Listen to the tide slowly turning

Wash all our heartaches away
We're part of the fire that is burning
And from the ashes we can build another day


But I'm frightened for the children
That the life that we are living is in vain

And the sunshine we've been waiting for
Will turn to rain


When the final line is over
And it's certain that the curtain's gonna fall
I can hide inside your sweet sweet love

For evermore
