Lyrics

[Verse 1]
If my words did glow
With the gold of sunshine
And my tunes were played
On the harp unstrung
[Verse 2]
Would you hear my voice
Come through the music
Would you hold it near
As it were your own
[Verse 3]
It's a hand-me-down
The thoughts are broken
Perhaps they're better
Left unsung
[Verse 4]
I don't know
Don't really care
Let there be songs
To fill the air
[Verse 5]
Ripple in still water
When there is no pebble tossed
Nor wind to blow
[Verse 6]
Reach out your hand
If your cup is empty
If your cup is full
May it be again
[Verse 7]
Let it be known
There is a fountain
That was not made
By the hands of men
[Verse 8]
There is a road
No simple highway
Between the dawn
And the dark of night
[Verse 9]
And if you go
No one may follow
That path is for
Your steps alone
[Verse 10]
Ripple in still water
When there is no pebble tossed
Nor wind to blow
[Verse 11]
You who choose
To lead must follow
But if you fall
You fall alone
[Verse 12]
If you should stand
Then who's to guide you
If I knew the way
I would take you home
