I saw the ocean stretch like fabric
Like fine silk out on the sea
A moving scarf of light and water
Forever changing me

Verse: I heard singing in the evening
As the sky turned indigo
Each beating heart, plays a different part
In a hope that won't let go

Chorus: And the veil of night keeps falling
But the God of love keeps calling
And our voices keep on rising
Like prayers of air and smoke

Verse: There are threads that pull between us
And there are common things we know
We recognize a simple kindness
And a hope that won't let go

Chorus:

Bridge: We smile into the sunset we weep into our hands
Each season surely pass as water moves through sand

Verse: In the distance the thunder rumbles
And a baby starts to cry
A mother tucks in a blanket
And she sings a lullaby

Chorus It's so easy but we make it so hard
Love is simple as soap
May we live to say that we saw the day
But for now we'll live on hope
May we live to say that we saw the day
But for now we'll live on hope
