(Justin Hayward)
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 sound 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 are part of the fire that is burning,
And from the ashes we can build another day
But I'm frightened for your children,
And 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,
And it's certain that the curtain's gonna fall
I can hide inside your sweet sweet love,
For ever more
Listen to the tide slowly turning,
Wash all our heartaches away
We are part of the fire that is burning,
And from the ashes we can build another day
But I'm frightened for your children,
And the life that we are living is in vain
And the sunshine we've been waiting for,
Will turn to rain
