If for all things the sun shines,
How many years will clouded skies be;
In every breath this stubborn heart still beats.
If for all time the tide sways,
This our song is born a river ocean blue,
And one year between a word
be a mountain before the stars.
If one loss is one too many,
Death like desert secures a drought,
And laughless men dream in their chains.
Cold is the night before the day,
If for all things the sun shines,
The sky will clear for none but you.
