If my words did glow with the gold of sunshine
And my tunes were played on the harp 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 (the thoughts are broken)
Perhaps they're better left unsung (perhaps they're better left unsung)
I don't know (I don't know), don't really care (don't really care)
Let there be songs (let there be songs), to fill the air (to fill the air)
Ripple in still water
When there is no pebble tossed
Nor wind to blow
Reach out your hand, if your cup be empty
If your cup is full, may it be again
Let it be known, there is a fountain
That was not made by the hands of men
There is a road (there is a road), no simple highway (no simple highway)
Between the dawn and the dark of night (between the dawn and the dark of night)
And if you go (and if you go), no one may follow (no one may follow)
That path is for (that path is for), your steps alone (your steps alone)
Ripple in still water
When there is no pebble tossed
Nor wind to blow
You who choose (you who choose), to lead must follow (to lead must follow)
But if you fall (but if you fall), you fall alone (you fall alone)
If you should stand (if you should stand), then who's to guide you (then who's to guide you)
If I knew the way (f I knew the way), I would take you home (I would take you home)
La da da da, la da da da da
La da da, la da la, da da da
La da da da (da da da da), la da da da da
La da da da (la da da da), la da da da da (la da da da da)
