And I gave my hand to the Fates And they took me around They showed me the Seven Wonders The sights and the sounds
There was a man with cinders for eyes There was a girl with a dress made of flies And there's a reason There's a reason
And it's love that's tearing them down And it's love that turns them around Say it is so
And the ballroom is filled with the joy Of making old friends And jukebox girls trip the light They wiggle and they bend
Blind Joe, he's feeling no pain Sweet Georgia, she dreams of the rain And there's a reason There's a reason
And it's love that's tearing them down And it's love that will turn them around Say it is so
When the moon follows you where you go And you cannot hide And when voices of doom ring your ears And horsemen do ride
May tomorrow the land be anew May every bird sing unto you That's the reason That's the reason
That the love that's tearing you down Is the love that will turn you around That the love that's tearing you down Is the love that will turn you around
