From the Album: The Sounding (1986)
I sat up and watched the sky,
Felt cold water as it flowed by,
And I knew nothing in the world
Could ever harm me.
I've seen hurt and I've heard their lies,
I've watched murder with open eyes,
And I've stumbled through the dark
You'll never harm me.
On a fountain in the park
There is engraved a simple rhyme,
It has come down through the ages,
Through the ages for all time.
If you lean in close to read it
Falling water all around,
You will hear a simple secret
And you'll wonder at the sound.
All these places
Like still waters of hatred
Like the fathers of great men
Fade into the moonlight
I've been witness but never cried,
As the sticks and the stones roll by,
Though they rumble through the dark
They'll never harm me.
But you wonder how this came to be
You question and you fight.
And you're searching for the secret
But the secrets not in sight
So you walk up to the devil
With this fire in your hand
All your wisdom, all your knowledge
Drys to dust and turns to sand
All these places
Like still waters of hatred
Like the fathers of great men
Fade into the moonlight
All these faces
All great fires surround me
All the sirens around me
Look like you look tonight
