She walked into the room Leaving all her lovers in her trail And all that glitters fades With the garlands round her fame Out where the journey turns Another river runs and I’m amazed, You’re the one, locking on Like a memory And it’s good to feel you near So burn anther dawn And your tired and empty eyes look to the sun But grace won’t come Before this night is done Somewhere down that road You’ll look round and realize that it’s all gone Empires rise, and they fall I’ve played my part Holding on But if this is the way We love and we live So let it be But brother, can’t you see (But it just seems to me) That something’s got to give Sometimes I can’t easy see or believe All of this nature’s too real
