Sons and Daughters

Tonight I dreamed that I could not catch my breath
Tonight I dreamed that you were gone
And I could feel the ocean pound against my chest

In this world on my own
This frozen world alone

But if you must go away
Would you find no words to say
And would you steal my heart away
Please don't go

But I know along this way
We've seen the miracles
And the long road
And the breath that blows
Across the water

We've seen the last line
Of a failing time
But these friends of mine
Are sons and daughters
Sons and daughters

And underneath a clouded sky
We found a home
The mountains rising from the sea
And the falling rain washed us clean
And healed our souls

The waters rise but then they fall
I close my eyes, and our summer's gone

And now you must go away
And should you find no words to say
And should you steal my heart away
I would let it go

Because I know along this way
We've seen the miracles
And the long road
And the breath that blows
Across the water

We've seen the last line
Of a failing time
But these friends of mine
Are sons and daughters
Sons and daughters
