Lyrics
Don't stand so close to the water The crest of the wave may drag you home But, you don't want to go there child, no Keep moving on as the Earth moves beneath your toes Take both my hands, and let's step away Leave all our troubles for another day But, don't look down, or around, it's all moving too quickly by Just like a dream, you can see it's all gone in the blink of an eye (CHORUS) And, the battle lines of freedom have been drawn While the king upon his throne is looking on Take it to the streets and occupy Bring the peace beneath the city to the light Lift your glass tall, and let's all celebrate The good love shared among us on the better days Cause in not too long we'll all be buried six feet down So, stand up high, and we'll try to make it through somehow The leaves falling quickly past my knees Yellow, they glow through the Autumn breeze And, though the days are heavy, I know they're real Unlike the fear that we hear coming through the TV so unclear CHORUS
