We leave the shore on the sea of life

We sink if we don't swim

Sure as the sun will rise again

We're whistling in the wind

Springtime comes and all's made new

New life stands straight and tall

Made more sweet

'Cause you know some day

Everything whithers and falls



How can we know how life will unfold

When we cannot see the road

Through the mists of time

The path unwinds

To the end of the road we go



We sing brave songs as we march along

As though we were off to the fair

We grasp at what glitters

And find all along

We're just grabbing some handfull of air

And we lean on each other to mend our hearts

When we're beaten and burdened with care

'Til we find that the child that we thought

We'd lost

Was always inside us somewhere



How can we know how life will unfold

When we cannot see the road

Through the mists of time

The path unwinds

To the end of the road we go
