Stonehaven Sunset the water's on fire My true love of singing, we kiss and conspire Sing a song for the ocean a song for the sky A song for tomorrow love sweet by and by For the child who is coming and for dreams that come true Sing a song for each other for me and for you Sing a song for all lovers all the stars in the skies Sing of Stonehaven water home, Stonehaven Sunrise Stonehaven Sunset the desert's on fire Christ on the cross again burns with desire They are shooting at random though they aim at us all It's the children who rise up and children who fall All the angels are weeping the sweetest of tears Fall like rivers of mercy to wash all our fears Sing a song for Old Glory and a future that dies Sing of Stonehaven desert home, Stonehaven Sunrise Stonehaven Sunset the city's on fire The soldiers just smile and say this gun's for hire Give in to the beast boy give in to the thrill It's just human nature to hunt and to kill We all die together and yet somehow alone Just together we have memories and many are gone Singing songs for old soldiers a chorus of sighs Sing of Stonehaven city home, Stonehaven Sunrise Stonehaven Sunset the mountain's on fire My spirit is lifted, rising higher and higher All the prophets are laughing they say we told you so It's one thing to play guessing games, another to know For the needs of many are the sins of a few And the day is forthcoming when accounting is due Sing a song for sweet justice with a fire in her eyes Sing of Stonehaven mountain home, Stonehaven Sunrise Stonehaven Sunset the water's on fire My true love of singing, we kiss and conspire Sing a song for the ocean a song for the sky A song for tomorrow love sweet by and by For the child who is coming and for dreams that come true Sing a song for each other for me and for you Sing a song for all lovers all the stars in the skies Sing of Stonehaven water home, Stonehaven Sunrise Words and music by John Denver
