about

Generations have come and gone through nights of toil and trouble, days of wine and roses, and everything in between. Their stories, songs and memories propel us on through our own valleys and shadows 'til suddenly, it's morning.

lyrics

On our way to the morning light
Leave your sins and your sorrow behind
Linger on, don't say goodnight
Cuz we're on our way to the morning light

Silent faces and beggars come home
Midnight is calling you on
Down through the valley
To the shadows untold
The wind sings the old restless song

On our way to the morning light
Leave your sins and your sorrow behind
Linger on, don't say goodnight
Cuz we're on our way to the morning light

Outside your window the rain will come down
The rust on your soul takes ahold
But down through the ages
Far away from the tears
The Mothers and Fathers draw near

On our way to the morning light
Leave your sins and your sorrow behind
Linger on, don't say goodnight
Cuz we're on our way to the morning light

Eyes so weary and stumbling asleep
But the voice in our hearts will sing on
Up from the water to the face of the sun
The wind cries an old restless song

On our way to the morning light
Leave your sins and your sorrow behind
Linger on, don't say goodnight
Cuz we're on our way to the morning light

Linger on, don't say goodnight
Cuz we're on our way to the morning light
