Reap the wild wind (x4)

A finger points to show a scene (take my hand, take my hand)
Another face where mine had been (take my hand, take my hand)
Another footstep where I once walked (take my hand)
Take it all

(Chorus)
You take my hand and give me your friendship
I'll take my take my time and send you my slow reply
Give me an inch and I'll make the best of it
Take all you want and leave all the rest to die

Reap the wild wind

A footprint haunts an empty floor (take my hand, take my hand)
A fading coat that I once wore (take my hand, take my hand)
Oh, A desolation where I one lived
I have seen in times gone by
I have felt a different shadow on the wall
A stranglehold on a certain feeling

(Chorus)

Reap the wild wind (x2)

(Chorus)

Reap the wild wind

Serenade, in rhythm and swing.
Serenade, the gift that we bring.
Serenade, youth runs wild with the beat in their hearts.
Dance a wild dance, be torn apart.

Voices ringing in their heads.
Their crashing hands in time.
In sequence and in rhyme.
The chant of a thousand-fold.
The song of a million strong.
Echoes their perfect praise.

(Chorus)

From the mouths of babes and fools.
Hunted melodies.
With gracefulness and ease.
Compose their gifted words.
Orchestrate their moves.
Echo the perfect praise.
Serenade.

(Chorus)

Prophets tell the tale.
The legend and the lies.
The fable and the rhymes.
The chant of a thousand-fold.
The song of a billion strong.
Echoes the perfect praise.
Serenade!

(Chorus)

In rhythm and swing.
The gift that we bring.
Youth runs wild with the beat in their hearts.
Dance the wild dance, be torn apart.

Serenade, in rhythm and swing. ( Repeat 5 times and fade. )
Serenade, the gift that we bring.

Give us this day all that you showed me.
The power and the glory 'til thy kingdom come.

Chorus:

Give us this day all that you showed me,
The power and the glory 'til thy kingdom come.
Give me all the storybook told me,
The faith and the glory 'til thy kingdom comes.

And they said that in our time,
All that's good will fall from grace.
Even saints would turn their face,
In our time.

And they told us that in our days,
Different words said in different ways,
Have other meaning from he who says,
In our time.

(Chorus)

And they said that in our time,
We would reap from their legacy,
We would learn from what they had seen,
In our time.

And they told us that in our days,
We would know what was high on high,
We would follow and not defy,
In our time.

(Chorus)

Faithless in faith.
We must behold the things we see.

(Chorus - Repeat 4 times and fade)

Face in the window in the night
Caught for a second by the light
Ashes of memories still aglow
''Only for you''
Portraits and pictures you once saw
Visions in blue

Read while the letters still remain
Sip from the wine of youth again
Oaths made in silence still return
''Only for you''
Cast like a shroud you're clutching on
Visions in blue

Catch aimless smiles from passers by
Blistered and broken in reply
Breath seems to mist the hazy view
''Only for you''
Tears coat your lifeless eyes with dew
Visions in blue
Visions in blue

Ashes of memories still aglow
Portraits and pictures you once saw
Ashes of memories still aglow
Portraits and pictures you once saw
Ashes of memories still aglow
Portraits and pictures you once saw

Face in the window in the night
Caught for a second by the light
Ashes of memories still aglow
''Only for you''
Portraits and pictures you once saw
Visions in blue

Welcome to..
Welcome to..
Welcome to the song.

Hear the words of the syncopated rhythms.
Welcome to the song.
And when it calls you, time to move on.
We go!

(Chorus)

Feel the strength of a hundred thousand heartbeats,
Cry welcome to the song.
And as it lifts you, time to move on.
We go!

(Chorus)

Drawn from the inside,
Time to move on.

We go!
We go!
