::Verse 1::
If my words didG glow with the gold ofC sunshine
And my tunes were played on the harp uGnstrung,
Would you hear my voice come through theC music?
Would youG hold itD nearC as it were yourG own?
It's a hand-me-dowGn, the thoughts areC broken;
Perhaps they're better left Gunsung.
I don't know, don't really Ccare.
Let Gthere beD songCs to fill the aiGr.
::Chorus::

AmRipple in still Dwater, when there Gis no pebble Ctossed,
NorA wind tDo blow.
::Verse 2::
Reach out your Ghand if your cup beC empty,
If your cup is full may it be Gagain.
Let it be known there is a Cfountain
TGhat was notD madeC by the hands ofG men.
There is aG road, no simpleC highway,
Between the dawn and the dark of Gnight,
And if you go, no one may Cfollow,
ThaGt path iDs forC your stepGs alone.

::Verse 3::
You who choosGe to lead must fCollow,
But if you fall, you fall Galone.
If you should stand, then who's to guideC you?
If GI knew the Dway CI would take you Ghome.
La da da da da,
La da da da da,
Da da da da, da da, da da da da da.
La da da da,
La da da da da,
La da da da,
La da da da da.
