Dry Your Eyes

Dry your eyes and take your song out

It's a newborn afternoon

If you can't recall the singer

You can still recall the tune

Dry your eyes and play it slowly

Like you're marching off to war

Sing it like you know he'd want it

Like we sang it once before

From the center of the circle

To the midst of the waving crowd

If it ever be forgotten

Sing it long and sing it loud

Come, dry your eyes

And he taught us more about giving

Than we ever cared to know

But we came to find the secret

And we never let it go

And it was more than being holy

Though it was less than being free

And if you can't recall the reason

Can you hear the people sing?

Through the lightning and the thunder

To the darkside of the moon

To the distant falling angel

Who descended much too soon

And come, dry your eyes

Come, dry your eyes
