Real Thing lyrics

I return

In the light of the sun

A shadow is cast of a moment in time

Like turns of the tide

In the still of the night it begins

What is is to be

While all things must pass, a presence remains

A fire will burn, purify – never change

It’s seen in the sky, it’s felt deep inside

As there’s so much more to this than meets the eye

It’s something within, it’s something without

The longing inside is the drive that allows

The work to be done

River deep, mountain high

A shadow inside

In the light of a greatness from which none can hide

Out of the blue, into the fire

And I’m stronger than ever in my one surrender

A red storm arising

Now I know what I want and I know how to get it

It’s calling within and without

As pure as the real thing

The state and the feeling

It leaves me no doubt of what needs to be done

A thunder’s been raging

A choice has been taken

To never look back

To be one of the few

I know it ’cause I feel it

I don’t need no further proof to believe it

There’s a guiding light

Burning inside out

As pure as the real thing

In this forum of time and of place

There’s a rainbow arising after the rain

As the sun melts the snow

The ice and the fire

Mountain streams overflow

Run down from the higher

And the water, it glitters like diamond

As pure as the light
