Lyrics

"Hand Me Down" provisionally
 ♪
 If my words did glow with the gold of sunshine
 And my tunes were played on the harp unstrung
 Would you hear my voice comin' through the music?
 Would you hold it near as it were your own?
 It's a hand-me-down, the thoughts are broken
 Perhaps they're better left unsung
 I don't know, don't really care
 Let there be songs to fill the air
 Ripple in still water
 Where there is no pebble tossed
 Nor wind to blow
 Reach out your hand, if your cup is empty
 If your cup is full, may it bе again
 Let it be known there is a fountain
 That was not made by the hands of men
 There is a road, no simple highway
 Between the dawn and the dark of night
 And if you go, no one may follow
 That path is for your steps alone
 Ripple in still water
 Where there is no pebble tossed
 Nor wind to blow
 You who choose to lead must follow
 But if you fall, you fall alone
 If you should stand then who's to guide you?
 If I knew the way, I would take you home
 Da-da-da, da-n-da-da, da-da, da
 Da-da, da-da, da-da, da, da-da, da
 Da-da-da, da, da, da-da-da-da
 Da, da, da-da, da-da-da-da-da
