Another fall and rise has come again

As I pick my eyes up off the floor

‘Cause I know now that time rolls on

Let’s just enjoy the way it does



Just last night my love heard her song

Floating in this western wind

She said you don’t know the things I know

Oh Lord, I hear her whisper still



“You’re a simple man

Hoping for heaven

Hold on now the work is not done

The light’s on for you

Goodnight my love”



She’s the one that calms me down

Whispering some old lullaby

She came to me when I was low

Took all my fears to melt away



She says, “You’re a simple man

Building your heaven

See now the work’s almost done

The light’s on for you

Goodnight my love”



I could sit and stare from here forever

Some nights it’s great to be alone

Here in my dream I’ve found a river

That takes me back to my home



I hide myself

I hide myself

I know that it’s wrong

She shows her soul

She bears her soul

I know that she’s right



Oh I fall and rise

I fall and rise

Oh we fall, we fall, and we rise
