Janis Ian - Hymn lyrics
[Janis Ian - Hymn lyrics]
When we grow old and love grows cold
And time runs down like a river
That calls us home
The eyes grow dim the light grown thin
And time will end here forever
Long time gone
Then time and the river must
Stop in their tracks
Or roll on forever, there's no turning back
I've waiting too long To be
Left here like this long time gone
Then weep no more the heart is pure
These hands are sure like a river
That clings to shore
The love we learn the love we burn
A love that burns in the darkness
Will weep no more
Dreams die young
And time runs down like a river
That calls us home
The eyes grow dim the light grown thin
And time will end here forever
Long time gone
Then time and the river must
Stop in their tracks
Or roll on forever, there's no turning back
I've waiting too long To be
Left here like this long time gone
Then weep no more the heart is pure
These hands are sure like a river
That clings to shore
The love we learn the love we burn
A love that burns in the darkness
Will weep no more
Dreams die young
