If you're trying
If you have to try
Just to make it by
Another empty hour
Another frozen day
There may be one who knows what to say
One who watches for the moment
When his words might find their way
(Now) If you're sorry
If you must be sad
If you have never had a reason
And you're waiting for your purpose to appear
There may be one who knows it is near
One who stares into the waters
That are clouded by your fear
And who sees that after all you will run clear
Learn to live
Learn to die
Take this time
Don't ask why
Are you lying in pain
Where we all one time have lain
Who says you must remain
You've got the world to gain
If you're trying
If you have to try
Just to make it by
That same old falling mountain
That hides you from your way
There may be one who knows what to say
Learn to live
Learn to die
Take this time
Don't ask why
Are you lying in pain
Where we all have one time lain
Who says you must remain
You've got the world to gain
You've got the world to gain
You've got the world to gain
If you have to try
Just to make it by
Another empty hour
Another frozen day
There may be one who knows what to say
One who watches for the moment
When his words might find their way
(Now) If you're sorry
If you must be sad
If you have never had a reason
And you're waiting for your purpose to appear
There may be one who knows it is near
One who stares into the waters
That are clouded by your fear
And who sees that after all you will run clear
Learn to live
Learn to die
Take this time
Don't ask why
Are you lying in pain
Where we all one time have lain
Who says you must remain
You've got the world to gain
If you're trying
If you have to try
Just to make it by
That same old falling mountain
That hides you from your way
There may be one who knows what to say
Learn to live
Learn to die
Take this time
Don't ask why
Are you lying in pain
Where we all have one time lain
Who says you must remain
You've got the world to gain
You've got the world to gain
You've got the world to gain
