Doing what it does so well I can hear the old church bell Each day has a number now It's singing low Water soon will turn to steam Bees are buzzing in my dream Suddenly the garden seems So far away "Don't give in" they'll say There's nowhere to run anyway I have decided to stay And take on the shadow that darkens the day Take on the mountain that stands in the way In the mouth of a shadow In the mouth of a shadow In the mouth of a shadow In the eye of a storm
Winter still defends itself But one day all this ice will melt I will take your bony hand And move along "Don't give in" they'll say There's nowhere to run anyway I have decided to stay Take on the shadow that darkens the day Take on the mountain that stands in the way In the mouth of a shadow In the mouth of a shadow In the mouth of a shadow In the eye of a storm In the mouth of a shadow In the mouth of a shadow In the mouth of a shadow In the eye of a storm
