He was born with a six - stringbr Not a shotgun in his handbr And he walked across the waterbr To reach the promised landbr br And he searched for the futurebr For the meaning of our livesbr Hearing echoes in the distancebr Telling love's so hard to findbr br Catch the stormbr Don't wait until the dawnbr Catch the stormbr Without you I feel so sad,br Feel so sadbr br There were endless days and nightsbr Where our love turned into icebr But the flame's inside still burnin'br Broken dreams in paradisebr br We called the eyes of the rainbowbr To free us from our sinsbr We searched the night for all lost promisesbr A fight we couldn't win
