The hour is ending, can't you see
There is no way now, to get free
In the shadow of the season
Without a reason, to carry onWithout a reason, without a reasonAnd from the north woods, down to the valley
In a world of hurting, I'm moving on
And from the lighthouse, out on the ocean
Can't climb the mountain, so very tallSaid Lord, please give me what I need
He said there's pain and misery
Oh, sweet oblivion, feels alrightThe hour is drawing ever closer
And rolling over, won't let me be
In the shadow of the season
To find a reason, to carry onSaid Lord, please give me what I need
He said there's pain and misery
Oh, sweet oblivionShe calls me onward to her side
And feels her song deep inside
And find a reasonIn the shadow of the season
To find a reason to carry on
In the shadow of the season
To find a reason to carry onFind a reason to carry on, to carry on
To find a reason to carry on, to carry on
