LYRICS:

(1) Autumn leaves on the tree, turning gold, turning red, hanging on through the night in the cold and wind, hanging on to the place where they've always been, hanging on, hanging on, to the end. (Chorus) Tell me, what does it mean to be here and alive? Are we meant to do more than cling? Are we leaves on some branch holding on for our life, or a bird on the branch come to sing? (2) Every day before dawn, if you listen close, you will hear a small bird start to sing its song, through summer and spring, through winter and fall, ever there, ever there, on and on. (Chorus) (3) Many days this old world seems a sad, bitter place grown cold with fear, gone mad with rage. But as all around things fall apart, deepest love, deepest hope, still remains. (Chorus)

LYRICS:

(1) Come, talk with me, and I will listen to your voice. Even if you speak a language I don't know, somehow I'll understand. Come, talk with me, and I will see your story written in your eyes, written in the lines of your face and hands. You are a person just like me: Life cuts you, and you bleed; life holds you, and you weep for joy. We seem so different, you and I, but listen to our sighs, and see the hope shining out from our eyes. (2) Come, talk with me, and listen to my voice. Even if I speak a language you don't know, somehow you'll understand. Come, talk with me, and you will see my story written in my eyes, written in the lines of my face and hands. I am a person just like you: Sometimes scared and confused, just tryin' to make it through. We seem so different, you and I, but we both come from the sky, and to the sky we will fly when we die. (3) Come, walk with me, and we will join our voices. Even if we speak a language no one knows, someone will understand. Come, walk with me, and we will see the story written in their eyes, everybody's eyes, all across the land, across the land, across the land.

LYRICS:

1. There is a hope that shines so bright, it blinds if seen straight on; it hides within our darkest fears until they've gone. And then that hope is hope no more, but simply what is known. And hope now hides its light inside the unknown, the unknown.   2. Where does the hope of your life dwell, the light within the pain? If there you let your vision rest, then all turns plain. And then that hope is hope no more, but simply what is known. And hope now hides its light inside the unknown, the unknown.   3. I hold the hope that all the world will learn someday to see the inner light that's shared by all humanity. Then every hope will not be hope, but simply what is known; then every hope will not be hope, but what is known, what is known.

LYRICS:

(1) What eye has not seen hatred, what ear has not heard blame, what heart has not felt sorrow and fear, what soul has not lost its way? (2) What eye has not seen kindness, what ear has not heard peace, what heart has not felt gratitude and love, what soul has not found release? (3) May ev'ry eye see kindness, may ev'ry ear hear peace, may ev'ry heart feel gratitude and love, may ev'ry soul find release.
