Lyrics:
Out of the Shadows
Song #89 | September 1986 | revised 8/14/2006 and 4/23/2017
Tuning: DADGAD open or capo 2
Circle of light on the living room floor
And you’re out of the shadows and alive once more
Call the police, call city hall
Call it a dream call it nothing at all
But Come come in from the cold…
All your life you’ve heard the talk
The healer made the lame man walk
The blind can see and the deaf can hear
And now your eyes are filled with tears
Come in from the cold…
Early morning yesterday,
You chose to roll your stone away
Are you alive? Do children play?
Welcome to your borning day!
Come in from the cold…
The wind in the gravel and the grass and the trees
Speaks to you and sets you free
When your dream knocks on your door
You do not lock it anymore!
Come in from the cold…
Bridge:
Sing your song before you’re gone!
Sing your song before you’re gone!
Out of the shadows and cleansed of fear
You now know why you were put here
You have healed your heart and sould
Don’t you think the world should know?
You’ve come in from the cold…
You’ve come in from the cold…
