A Hero's Canticle
Kerry Livgren
GENRE
When the night comes rollin' down the sky
I see the questions in your eye
We wonder what will come in times like these
But I don't believe the Crystal Ball
I’m listening for a different call
While all the world is clamoring for peace
And you can feel the weight the seasons bear
It's all around us everywhere
Tracing our movement through the years
For the Song we sang isn't heard anymore
We've forgotten it's name
But the melody still lingers in our hearts
So we're pushin' on, and we're not looking'back
And we don't mind the pain
Cause' a man can never lose what he can't attain
Can anyone remember when
The boys were boys and men were men
And everyone believed we'd all pull through
But the changes came and chilled the air
Our Heroes are no longer there
The ones who stand against the tide are few
And you can feel the weight the seasons bear
It's all around us everywhere
Tracing our movement through the years
Now the years will steal away our youth
A lie can change, but not the truth
It's slipping through our fingers even now
It's a sorrow we don't need to share
A burden we don't have to bear
The melody still lingers in my ears
Cause the Song we sing, is alive again
And it's always the same
It's the melody that was living in our hearts
So we're pushin' on, and we're not looking' back
And we don't mind the pain
Cause' a man can never lose what he can't attain
I see the questions in your eye
We wonder what will come in times like these
But I don't believe the Crystal Ball
I’m listening for a different call
While all the world is clamoring for peace
And you can feel the weight the seasons bear
It's all around us everywhere
Tracing our movement through the years
For the Song we sang isn't heard anymore
We've forgotten it's name
But the melody still lingers in our hearts
So we're pushin' on, and we're not looking'back
And we don't mind the pain
Cause' a man can never lose what he can't attain
Can anyone remember when
The boys were boys and men were men
And everyone believed we'd all pull through
But the changes came and chilled the air
Our Heroes are no longer there
The ones who stand against the tide are few
And you can feel the weight the seasons bear
It's all around us everywhere
Tracing our movement through the years
Now the years will steal away our youth
A lie can change, but not the truth
It's slipping through our fingers even now
It's a sorrow we don't need to share
A burden we don't have to bear
The melody still lingers in my ears
Cause the Song we sing, is alive again
And it's always the same
It's the melody that was living in our hearts
So we're pushin' on, and we're not looking' back
And we don't mind the pain
Cause' a man can never lose what he can't attain
