IT FALLS TO YOU (Ring Around The Night)

(April 11, 2004)

 You can take anything that you find here
You can have anything that I own
You can sit here all night with these children and still be all alone

Like a storm that blows by in the evening
Like a ship that sails out in the night
Like a dream that you wanted to cling to -- disappears in the light

There's a haze around the sun, a ring around the night
A distant fear that disappears before the morning light
And a daybreak that's faithful and true -- it falls to you

I have run with the fears of the hunted
Stood my ground when they tore us apart
I have lived with the aches of the aging and the aches of the heart

There's a place where you go when it's over
Some folks say we've been there all along
Maybe we'll all get together for a laugh and a song

There's a haze around the sun, a ring around the night
A distant fear that disappears before the morning light
And a daybreak that's faithful and true -- it falls to you

There's a haze around the sun, a ring around the night
A distant fear that disappears before the morning light
It's a light that won't fade, a dream that won't die
A fleeting little tear and a glisten in your eye
And we both know just what we have to do -- it falls to you
It falls to you
