In evenings cold Where emptiness makes you feel old It's night rain against your windowpane That starts you thinkin' about The bygone days Once in some past yesterday Where all you knew was children's play In your fondest memories Was it just a laughing moment in your wide-eyed fantasies Don't be afraid Of what's to come We're not here forever Lift your face Look towards the sun It's sure to set for everyone Cryin' about what's gone away You can't keep burning bridges With hopes that fall astray It's not a matter of time before your life will fall in line Don't you know you've got to try Love and life are two things that come and go And in the end there may not be that much there left to show But you must understand It's all some kind of crazy plan You and I are all we need to get us by Don't be afraid Of what's to come We're not here forever Lift your face Look towards the sun It's sure to set for everyone Don't be afraid Of what's to come We're not here forever Lift your face Look towards the sun It's sure to set for everyone Don't be afraid Don't be afraid
