Hope In the furnace, you know It can burn away slow Or it can come out like gold And mine Is walking the edge of the knife In the fire tonight In the fire, I fight With a song Carries on to the night Of the future that's bright The morning will bring One day, when sorrows are gone Further down and along We'll finally sing We'll sing Gone are the days When we cry-y-y, cry-y-y Here are the days When we'll fly-y-y, fly-y-y All our hopes will turn to sight Beyond the veil, in the morning light We'll sing gone Are the days I wait But it's so hard, you know To believe on your own That you'll be okay When sorrow keeps chasing me down I run till my feet hit the ground When we gather to pray As I reach For the bread and the wine For the comfort I"ll find Picture the scene One days To the table we'll come Every daughter and son, finally free We'll sing Gone are the days When we cry-y-y, cry-y-y Here are the days When we'll fly-y-y, fly-y-y All our hopes will turn to sight Beyond the veil, in the morning light We'll sing gone Are the days Finally, all is right Only love and light Finally, all is right When all is right... We'll sing Gone are the days When we cry-y-y, cry-y-y Here are the days When we'll fly-y-y, fly-y-y All our hopes will turn to sight Beyond the veil, in the morning light We'll sing gone Are the days

Freeze the moment in time Travel back down the corridor of eden See the apple shine It was gonna be the ladder to the skies in their mind The moment now set it into motion Play it back in time It's a worn out tragedy And though history won't repeat We're still livi'n in the rhyme Cuz we fly to the mountaintop We climb to the skies above We sail to the stars and up But we can't get high High enough Yeah I flung the earth A trinket at my wrist I said to the dawn that I don't need none a this Kept the sky above me with infinite profundity Believed these shoulder blades would sing as wings Cold minds of mine a gold mine of cold lines And when it's go time these cards I ain't fold mine I told I was gonna shine And I screamed to the ocean like 'all y'all mine' Liittle did I know my legs turned to lead And two can keep a secret if one of 'em is dead And you can't be an equal while bei'n mislead And I can see the sequel play'n in my head Who hasn't imagined their arms a literal wingspan And ran as fast as they can in anticipation For the moment the laws of aerodynamics kick in Only to be reminded of the space we live in Cuz we fly to the mountaintop We climb to the skies above We sail to the stars and up But we can't get high High enough They tell me you'll be free like a Bird in the sky a bird in the sky oh They tell me you'll be free like a Bird in the sky a bird in the sky oh So tell me if you feel like a bird in the sky a bird in the sky oh So tell me if you feel like a bird in the sky a bird in the sky oh Cuz we fly to the mountaintop We climb to the skies above We sail to the stars and up But we can't get high High Cuz we fly to the mountaintop We climb to the skies above We sail to the stars and up But we can't get high High enough

Let the river rock you like a cradle Climb to the treetops, child, if you're able Let your hands tie a knot across the table. Come and touch the things you cannot feel. And close your fingertips and fly where I can't hold you Let the sun-rain fall and let the dewy clouds enfold you And maybe you can sing to me the words I just told you, If all the things you feel ain't what they seem. And don't mind me 'cos I ain't nothin' but a dream. The mocking bird sings each different song Each song has wings - they won't stay long. Do those who hear think he's doing wrong? While the church bell tolls its one-note song And the school bell is tinkling to the throng. Come here where your ears cannot hear. And close your eyes, child, and listen to what I'll tell you Follow in the darkest night the sounds that may impel you And the song that I am singing may disturb or serve to quell you If all the sounds you hear ain't what they seem, Then don't mind me 'cos I ain't nothin' but a dream The rising smell of fresh-cut grass Smothered cities choke and yell with fuming gas I hold some grapes up to the sun And their flavour breaks upon my tongue. With eager tongues we taste our strife And fill our lungs with seas of life. Come taste and smell the waters of our time. And close your lips, child, so softly I might kiss you, Let your flower perfume out and let the winds caress you. As I walk on through the garden, I am hoping I don't miss you If all the things you taste ain't what they seem, Then don't mind me 'cos I ain't nothin' but a dream . The sun and moon both arise And we'll see them soon through days and nights But now silver leaves are mirrors, bring delights. And the colours of your eyes are fiery bright, While darkness blinds the skies with all its light. Come see where your eyes cannot see. And close your eyes, child, and look at what I'll show you; Let your mind go reeling out and let the breezes blow you, And maybe when we meet then suddenly I will know you. If all the things you see ain't Quite what they seem, Then don't mind me 'cos I ain't nothin' but a dream . And you can follow; And you can follow; follow...

"There's a high flyin' bird, flying way up in the sky, And I wonder if she looks down, as she goes on by? Well, she's flying so freely in the sky. Lord, look at me here, I'm rooted like a tree here, Got those sit-down, Can't cry Oh Lord, gonna die blues. Now the sun it comes up and lights up the day, And when he gets tired, Lord, he goes on down his way, To the east and to the west, He meets God every day. Lord, look at me here, I'm rooted like a tree here, Got those sit-down, can't cry Oh Lord, gonna die blues. Now I had a woman Lord, she lived down by the mine, She ain't never seen the sun, Oh Lord, never stopped trying. Then one day my woman up and died, Lord, she up and died now. Oh Lord, she up and died now. She wanted to fly, And the only way to fly is die, die, die. There's a high flyin' bird, flying way up in the sky, And I wonder if she looks down as she goes on by? Well, she's flying so freely in the sky. Lord, look at me here, I'm rooted like a tree here, Got those sit-down, can't cry, Oh, Lord, gonna die blues."

Here comes the sun, here comes the sun, And I say it's all right Little darling, it's been a long cold lonely winter Little darling, it feels like years since it's been here Here comes the sun, here comes the sun And I say it's all right Little darling, the smiles returning to the faces Little darling, it seems like years since it's been here Here comes the sun, here comes the sun And I say it's all right Sun, sun, sun, here it comes... Sun, sun, sun, here it comes... Sun, sun, sun, here it comes... Sun, sun, sun, here it comes... Sun, sun, sun, here it comes... Little darling, I feel that ice is slowly melting Little darling, it seems like years since it's been clear Here comes the sun, here comes the sun, And I say it's all right It's all right
