The weary world is waiting
For ambition to be played
Now young and not afraid
I've got a challenge
Every Challenge that I knowFor I am just a sailor
On a ship across the land
Let me hold your hand
To bid farewell
So I can knuckle to my kneesBut I'll be back again
No matter where I go
For it's only love
That frees the fire for burning
And I'll take you in my arms
And tell you all I know
As I sing the changing songs
Of my returningMy drifting days prepare me
To do battle with the night
A phantom of fight
I've got to conquer
All the courage of my fearsThe answer lies in limbo
And the harvest will be hard
But sacred are the stars
That leave their mark upon
The fast dissolving yearsYes I'll be back again
No matter whre I go
For it's only love
That frees the fire for burning
And I'll teke you in my arms
ANd tell you all I know
As I sing the growing songs
of my returningTime must have her victory
IT's that I've always known
But I've won or lost alone
And when a voice calls out,
"There's Someone you should meet"With every strength remaining
I will suffer one more scene
I'll gather all my dreams
And with my final breath
I'll lay them at your feetYes I'll be back again
No matter where I go
For it's only love
That frees the fire burning
ANd I'll take you in my arms
ANd tell you all I know
As I sing the final song
of my returning
