So the order of the lyrics is like this:
"And the wills of the river
Leads you here
Where the wind it is yielding V1
And the light it is clear
To rest upon forever
Or to live for one more day
No I won't restrain the morning V2
I'll get ready for this spring
Oh see them planets shining
To the south to the north
Headed out the west wind V3
Going to find myself a home
Where the night it is guarded
By the shores of the sea
And the moon it is resting V4
While the sun it breaks free
Ooooh...
Ooooh...
Ooooh... Interlude
Ooooh...
(x2)
And the world is all alone now
While its children still sleep
Silently."
I hope this is accurate and not too confusing. I didn't want to write out each line individually because
this way seemed easier. If you know the order of the lyrics it shouldn't be too hard to get.
Verses 1 and 3 are played the same way and verses 2 and 4 are the same as well. Listening to the song a
few times will probably help you as you're learning it :)
