Don't Cease Your Singing
I see you worried in the morning as you’re waking to the dawn
And we go swinging that old hammer day by day
The picket signs get heavy and that fires starts to fade
All the words that once were strong now feel cliché
But darling, darling, I think I’ve found my way
I keep losing it each time that I sleep
And the words that I hear echo down through the years
And they come out in a ragged melody
And I can hear them every time that you sing
So darling don’t cease your singing
Darling don’t shut your mouth
Cause its fire I swear you’re breathing
It’s a cold, cold world and it’s waiting for you to shout
And all that fear won’t hold you down
Fill up your lungs and hear the sound
There’s a stillness on the wind
A new day is coming in
There’s freedom of those streets tonight
So darling don’t cease your singing
Darling don’t shut your mouth
Cause its fire I swear you’re breathing
It’s a cold, cold world and it’s waiting for you to shout
But every now and then
When I get so tired
I keep listening for the sound of drums
It’s a longing that drags us forward
There’s a brand new world to come
