|
There's a river in |
|
Evening ember glow |
|
And you're wishing you could see |
|
How far it flows |
|
Rolling on to an endless sea |
|
You'd be well on your way |
|
If you could only set sail. |
|
But dreams can drift away |
|
And sails can fill with doubt |
|
Where's your vision |
|
If the embers flicker out? |
|
Don't let it slip from view |
|
The horizons are waiting |
|
Your river is fading |
|
(chorus) |
|
So keep the fire burning tonight |
|
See just what comes into sight |
|
Don't take forever |
|
Take it through the night |
|
And believe the sun |
|
Will rise with the dawn |
|
That's all you need to go on |
|
But for tonight |
|
Just keep the fire burning bright |
|
I will never need to ask |
|
'what have i done?' |
|
Comes a moment when it's clear |
|
There's only one. |
|
Oh, whatever you need of me |
|
I've made up my mind |
|
I'll give you more than you've asked for |
|
And there are those who can foresee |
|
Where we will go |
|
All the future... |
|
I don't really want to know |
|
Only that you'll be here with me. |
|
While the embers still glow |
|
We'll be safe till tomorrow. |
