in the ripples of the morn
on a ship across the land
Let me hold your hand to bid farewell
so I cannot go to my knees
For it's only love that frees
Then I'll take you in my arms
and I'll tell you all I know
Now young and not afraid,
I've got to challenge every
My eager ears are listening
for the singing of the sign
For it's only love that frees
And I'll take you in my arms,
and I'll tell you all I know
As I sing the changing song
prepare me to do battle with the night
I've got to conquer all the
The an swer lies in limbo
and the harvest will be hard
upon the fast -dissolving years
For it's only love that frees
Then I'll take you in my arms
and I'll tell you all I know
As I sing the growing song
it's that I've always known
and when a voice calls out
There's someone you must meet
With every strength remaining
I will suffer one more sin
I'll gather all my dreams,
I'll lay them at your feet
For it's only love that frees
Then I'll take you in my arms
and I'll tell you all I know
