Dry Your Eyes

Dry your eyes, take your song out, when it's a newborn afternoon

And if you can't recall the singer, can you still recall the tune?

Dry your eyes and play it slowly, just like you're marching off to war

Sing it like you always wanted, like you sung it once before



And from the center of the circle to the midst of the waiting crowd

If it ever is forgotten, sing it long and sing it loud

And come dry your eyes



And you taught us more about living than we ever cared to know

And we came to learn the secret and we'd never let it go



And it was more than being holy, oh, it was less than being free

And if you can't recall the reason, can you hear the people sing?



Right through the lightning and the thunder

To the dark side of the moon

To that distant falling angel that descended much too soon

Come dry your eyes



Dry your eyes, take your song out, it's a newborn afternoon

And if you can't recall the singer, you can still recall the tune

Come dry your eyes, come dry your eyes

Dry your eyes
