Lyrics

If my words did glow with the gold of sunshine

And my tunes were played on the harps unstrung

Would you hear my voice come through the music?

Would you hold it near as it were your own?

It's a hand me down (it's a hand me down) the thoughts are broken

Perhaps (perhaps) they're better (they're better) left unsung

I don't know (I don't know), don't really care

Let there be songs to fill the air

And ripple in still water

When there is no pebble tossed, nor wind to blow

Reach out your hand (reach out your hand) if your cup be empty

If your cup (your cup) is full (is full), may it be again

Let it be known (let it be known), there is a fountain

That was not made by the hands of men

There's a road (there's a road), no simple highway

Between (between) the dawn (the dawn) and the dark of night

But if you go (but if you go), no one may follow

That path is for your steps alone

Ripple in still water

When there is no pebble tossed, nor wind to blow

And you who choose (and you who choose) to lead must follow

But if (but if) you fall (you fall), you'll fall all alone

If you should stand (if you should stand), then who's to guide you?

If I knew the way, I would take you home

La, la, la (la, la, la, la) la, la, la, la, la, la

La, la (la, la) la, la (la, la) la, la, la, la, la

La, la, la (la, la, la, la) la, la, la, la, la, la

La, la, la, la, la, la, la, la

La, la, la (la, la, la, la) la, la, la, la, la, la

(La, la) la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la

La, la, la (la, la, la, la) la, la, la, la, la, la

La, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la

La, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la
