These mist covered mountains
Are a home now for me But my home is the lowlands And always will be Some day you'll return to Your valleys and your farms And you'll no longer burn To be brothers in arm Through these fields of destruction Baptism of fire I've watched all your suffering As the battles raged higher And though they did hurt me so bad In the fear and alarm You did not desert me My brothers in arms There's so many different worlds So many different suns And we have just one world But we live in different ones Now the sun's gone to hell And the moon's riding high Let me bid you farewell Every man has to die But it's written in the starlight And every line on your palm We're fools to make war On our brothers in arms |

Recently it all came back to me
Somebody promised us roses We slid by for awhile on dreams But today I see what's only a memory Of a decade ago that vanished from sight With the speed of a shooting star Leaving you, leaving me, where we are... Well, you could say we sailed on stormy seas Or you could say that we failed Like seven out of ten in our neighborhood But I prefer remembering the way we were When we both thought the other had hung the moon 'Cause all too soon came the troubled times And the broken rhymes so hard to define 'til recently Oh, I could have tried for a thousand years Through the long and winding night Could have cried another million tears It would never come out right And recently the product of all our years Dressed in a navy blue blazer Headed for a first class school in the east And I'd like to say he's hardly a failure now And neither are you on the second time around With a wife and a family And the roses that lately arrived in the new baby's eyes So recently |

See her how she flies
Golden sails across the sky Close enough to touch But careful if you try Though she looks as warm as gold The moon's a harsh mistress The moon can be so cold Once the sun did shine And lord it felt so fine The moon a phantom rose Through the mountains and the pine And then the darkness fell The moon's a harsh mistress It's hard to love her well I fell out of her eyes I fell out of her heart I fell down on my face, yes I did And I tripped and I missed my star And I fell and fell alone The moon's a harsh mistress The sky is made of stone The moon's a harsh mistress She's hard to call your own |

Let Us Break Bread Together
Let us break bread together on our knees, (on our knees) Let us break bread together on our knees. (on our knees) When I fall on my knees with my face to the rising sun, O Lord, have mercy on me. (on me) Let us drink wine together on our knees, (on our knees) Let us drink wine together on our knees. (on our knees) When I fall on my knees with my face to the rising sun, O Lord, have mercy on me. (on me) Let us praise God together on our knees, (on our knees) Let us praise God together on our knees. (on our knees) When I fall on my knees with my face to the rising sun, O Lord, have mercy on me. (on me) Let us praise God together on our knees, (on our knees) Let us praise God together on our knees. (on our knees) When I fall on my knees with my face to the rising sun, O Lord, have mercy if you please. (if you please) Freedom Oh freedom, oh freedom, Oh freedom over me, And before I'll be a slave, I'll be buried in my grave, And go home to my Lord And be free. No more weeping No more shooting There'll be singing |

Sleep Sleep tonight And may your dreams Be realized If the thunder cloud Passes rain So let it rain Rain down on me Mmm...mmm...mmm... So let it be Mmm...mmm...mmm...
