Fireside Song |
| As daybreak breaks the mist upon the earth |
| It came to pass that beauty settled there forever more |
| And as the steam clings close to things to come |
| It came to pass that solid rock did part for humble life |
| Once upon a time there was confusion |
| Disappointment, fear and disillusion |
| Now there’s hope reborn with every morning |
| See the future clearly at its dawning |
| Forever drifting slowly towards a hazy emptiness |
| Whilst water slips into the sea |
| The father’s sad to see it free |
| As shadows creep towards their master night |
| It came to pass that trees defied the wind who shook their leaves |
| And as the peace descended all around |
| It came to pass that nature’s creatures came to face the world |
| Once upon a time there was confusion |
| Disappointment, fear and disillusion |
| Now there’s hope reborn with every morning |
| See the future clearly at its dawning |
| Forever drifting slowly towards a hazy emptiness |
| Whilst water slips into the sea |
| The father’s sad to see it free |
| Once upon a time there was confusion |
| Disappointment, fear and disillusion |
| Now there’s hope reborn with every morning |
| See the future clearly at its dawning |
| Once upon a time there was confusion |
| Disappointment, fear and disillusion |
