We're coming to the edge,
running on the water,
coming through the fog,
your sons and daughters
Let the river run,
let all the dreamers
wake the nation
Come, the New Jerusalem
Silver cities rise,
the morning lights
the streets that meet them,
and sirens call them on
with a song
It's asking for the taking
Trembling, shaking
Oh, my heart is aching
We're coming to the edge,
running on the water,
coming through the fog,
your sons and daughters
We the great and small
stand on a star
and blaze a trail of desire
through the dark'ning dawn
It's asking for the taking
Come run with me now,
the sky is the color of blue
you've never even seen
in the eyes of your lover
Oh, my heart is aching
We're coming to the edge,
running on the water,
coming through the fog,
your sons and daughters
It's asking for the taking
Trembling, shaking
Oh, my heart is aching
We're coming to the edge,
running on the water,
coming through the fog,
your sons and daughters
Let the river run,
let all the dreamers
wake the nation
Come, the New Jerusalem
