Gathered Faces

C G Dm Am x 3
Tell me that there's more to see and wonders to be shown
Tell me that the lonliness will someday be outgrown
Comfort me but don't forget what I've already known
C G F C x 1
Where these faces gather, that's where I am home


Am C Dm Em x 4
Gone the comfort of the past, where was comfort in the pain
See a land of new beginnings, learn your life again
Secrets of new existence, no secret to all there
Who would think ill of the child who closed their eyes in fear?

Chorus

Bridge
F C Am G x 2
Silent crowds and faces cold
Dreams abandoned and futures sold
F Em Dm Am
Lost and frightened, bereft, undone
C G F C
What foolishness child, just step into the sun

Am C Dm Em x 4
Forgive me if I sometimes waver and only shadow see
Show me without fear or favour how else this world can be
And if someday your own candle burns to it stub and dies
Maybe I can be the shoulder to which you turn to cry

C G Dm Am x 3
I'll tell you that there's more to see and wonders to be shown
I'll tell you that the lonliness will someday be outgrown
Maybe I can just remind you, and reap as you have sown
C G F C x 2
Come to me now my brother, we're here and you are home
Weep not now sister, we're here to bring you home
