E5       A5
Here we stand
C5                    G5
Thorns and leaves of memory
E5                 A5
Clouds of life's illusion
C5               G5
Pass across the sky
E5           A5
And here to fall
C5                   G5
Down to the essence of ourselves
E5            A5
Desert of the second dawn
C5                    G5     E5
Deep in the night of dreams

C5            G5
Burn away in reverie            CHORUS x2
A5           E5
Sink again into that pain
C5                   G5
Visions born of the evergreen
A5             E5
Rise again, oh rise again

E5        A5
Here we weave
C5                G5
Dark threads of destiny
E5            A5
Clouds of disillusion
C5             G5
Weep into the soul
E5        A5
And if we see
C5                  G5 
Through all life's mystery
E5                      A5
Come to the clearing of ourselves
C5                     G5    E5
The dark house of the world

C5                    G5
Burn away in reverie            CHORUS x2
A5                E5
Sink again into that pain
C5                            G5
Visions born of the evergreen
A5                   E5   A5 / E5
Rise again, oh rise again

E5                   G5
White stones of light
C5                         G5
Bright bows of the angel's fire
C5                           G5
To take this burden cruel
C5                       G5
And thread it into wings

C5                    G5
Burn away in reverie           CHORUS x 5
A5                E5
Sink again into that pain
C5                            G5
Visions born of the evergreen
A5                   E5
Rise again, oh rise again
