Wont Be Afraid
Well, Ive been at the top of a cliff
And seen ships go sailing away
And Ive watched the sea turn green
And bright blue fish swim in the shade
Ive imagined skies in reverse
And heard stormy mountains collide
And I was there by the shore on the night
When the stars all married the tide
When the time arrives
When we must form a line
Would you stand and take my side?
Would you take my side?
No, I wont be afraid
You know I wont be afraid
When the evening takes
All of the color out of my day
And the morning is as far
As it will ever be away
And now weve journeyed through the world
As if our dreams were an ocean to wade
Underwater kites they glide
Like a friendship set on a wave
When the time arrives
When we must form a line
Would you stand and take my side?
Would you take my side?
No, I wont be afraid
You know I wont be afraid
When the evening takes
All of the color out of my day
And the morning is as far
As it will ever be away
And maybe
Im afraid of fools
The children that are saved
And maybe
Im not certain
When they draw the final curtain
The woman in the water
And the baby in the bath
And the morning is as far
As it could ever be away
No, I wont be afraid
You know I wont be afraid
When the evening takes
All of the color out of my day
And the morning is as far
As it will ever be away
