Stonehaven sunset, the water's on fire. My true love is singing, we kiss and conspire.
|
Sing a song for the ocean, a song for the sky, a song for tomorrow, love sweet by and by.
|
For the child who is coming and for dreams that come true,
|
sing a song for each other for me and for you.
|
Sing a song for all lovers, all the stars in the skies.
|
Sing of Stonehaven water home, Stonehaven sunrise.
|
|
Stonehaven sunset, the desert's on fire. Christ on the cross again burns with desire.
|
They are shooting at random, though they aim at us all,
|
It's the children who rise up and children who fall,
|
All the angels are weeping, the sweetest of tears fall like rivers of mercy to wash all our fears.
|
Sing a song for Old Glory and a future that dies,
|
sing of Stonehaven desert home, Stonehaven sunrise.
|
|
Stonehaven sunset, the city's on fire. The soldiers just smile and say this gun's for hire.
|
Give in to the beast, boy, give in to the thrill. It's just human nature to hunt and to kill.
|
We all die together, and yet somehow alone. Just together we have memories and many are gone.
|
Singing songs for old soldiers, a chorus of sighs,
|
sing of Stonehaven's city home, Stonehaven sunrise.
|
|
Stonehaven sunset, the mountain's on fire. My spirit is lifted, rising higher and higher.
|
All the prophets are laughing, they say we told you so,
|
it's one thing to play guessing games, another to know.
|
For the needs of many are the sins of a few, and the day is forthcoming when accounting is due.
|
Sing a song for sweet Justice with a fire in her eyes,
|
Sing of Stonehaven mountain home, Stonehaven sunrise.
|
|
Stonehaven sunset, the water's on fire. My true love is singing, we kiss and conspire.
|
Sing a song for the ocean, a song for the sky, a song for tomorrow, love sweet by and by.
|
For the child who is coming and for dreams that come true,
|
sing a song for each other, for me and for you.
|
Sing a song for all lovers, all the stars in the skies,
|
Sing of Stonehaven water home, Stonehaven sunrise.
