ripples on the water reach my eyes
sitting so alone 'neath fallen skies
why was it so hard to see what was true
when all my life ever needed was you
the wind cut loose above the trees tonight
waiting for the water to still the night
when thinking about all the things I thought I knew
it seems all I was ever sure of was you
the leaves of summer are now burning on the hill
echoed in the smoke the sounds of love cut still
running through the hills the rivers flame
for written in the wind the sound of your name
blackness in the air stills my eyes
standing so alone 'neath fallen skies
but as the morning light shines on through
oh right there , there is you
