Today I reached out and touched the hand of God
Through a little child with the purest smile
Who warmed my hardened heart
And the simple things and the joy they bring
Have brought me this far
From an endless race where the things I'd chase
Made life so hard
Now I say a little prayer for you and me
That we will finally see
We can never go back
Only look ahead
The horizons burning red
From the warmth of the sun
It makes us feel so high
Like we can never die
Like we can never die
The nights are getting cooler and the last flowers bloom
While dust collects where my guitar sits
And the strings are out of tune
So I brush it off and start to cough
From breathing in the air
For it's been so long since I played a song
Since I even cared
Now I sing a little prayer for you and me
That we will finally see
We can never go back
Only look ahead
The horizons burning red
From the warmth of the sun
It makes us feel so high
Like we can never die
