Dan Fogelberg Lyrics for Song: In The Passage
 Lyrics for Album: The Innocent Age [1981]
 
 
 
 30417>There's a ring around the moon tonight
 
 And a chill in the air
 
 And a fire in the stars that hang
 
 So near, so near
 
 
 
 There's a sound in the wind that blows
 
 Through the wild mountain holds
 
 Like the sighs of a thousand crying
 
 Souls, crying souls
 
 
 
 There's a time when the traveler is fated to find
 
 That insight has turned his gaze behind, behind
 
 And the steps taken yesterday will beckon again
 
 And lead to his weary journey's end, his journey's end
 
 
 
 In the passage from the cradle to the grave
 
 We are born, madly dancing
 
 Rushing headlong through the crashing of the days
 
 We run on and on without a backwards glance
 
 We run on and on without a backwards glance
 
 
 
 But I cast my fate with the wife of lot
 
 I turned my gaze around
 
 Knowing neither what I sought
 
 Nor what was to be found
 
 
 
 Heeding weakness, feeding strength
 
 Our life at length is frail
 
 I seek again the river's source
 
 Through time's dark shadowed veil
 
 
 
 In the fast fading century
 
 As we spin through the years
 
 I pray that our failing vision
 
 Clears, our vision clears
 
 
 
 And in the passage from the cradle to the grave
 
 We are born, madly dancing
 
 Rushing headlong through the crashing of the days
 
 We run on and on without a backwards glance
 
 We run on and on without a backwards glance
 
 
 
 The places dash and the faces dart
 
 Like fishes in a dream
 
 Hiding 'neath the murky banks
 
 Of long forgotten streams
 
 
 
 The lines of life are never long
 
 When seen from end to end
 
 'Cause the future's never coming
 
 And the past has never been
 
 
 
 There's a ring around the moon tonight
 
 And a chill in the air
 
 And a fire in the stars that hang
 
 So near, so near
