Ever since I was a young man I have tried to steer my way
Between the glory of the stars and the troubles of my day
Now a new storm is coming, I can feel it on the rise
And the glory I'm needing is the light in your eyes
There's an aching in my heart, there's a crying in the land
And, Lord knows, I'm trying to understand
Sara, please be mine tonight
Can I lay by your side 'til the morning light
If I can hear your heart beat it'll be alright
Sara, please be mine tonight
When I wake up in the morning and hear the sound of rain
It feels like a mystery no one can explain
Just from where comes the darkness, and where comes the dawn
How do I know when it's time to move on
I'm alone on the mountain, I'm alone in the crowd
Love -- it's a mystery to humble the proud
Chorus
Keeping up with your dreams and I'm running out of breath
But looking backwards, that's the kiss of death
Yes, I hear what you're saying, and I know that it's true
The day is coming when our judgement is due
We'll be cleansed of the madness, or broken by our fear
The choice, it's ours, and the time is near
Chorus
