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 sounds 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

It's certain that the curtain's gonna fall

I can hide inside your sweet, sweet love

Forever more
