I stood in the warmth of night
Chilled to the bone
Hundreds of faces in sight
Still I was alone
Door after door
And room after empty room
I've stood here before
But under a different moon
Chorus:
In the longest days, in the darkest nights
Down the longest road, there's a presence of light
But I hear a voice that calls me
It's love's name I'll call in the end
I've walk in and out of the fire
Between truth and lies
Now how many children watch
While one child cries
I'll tear down these walls
And watch while our souls are freed
I'll throw away pride
To drown in this endless sea
Chorus
Hundreds of tears on the water
Mercy come rain down on me
Chorus
