Verse 1
GIf my words did glow with the gold of Csunshine
CAnd my tunes were played on the harp unstGrung
GWould you hear my voice come through the Cmusic?
CWould you Ghold it Dnear Cas it were your Gown?
Verse 2
GIt's a hand-me-down, the thoughts are Cbroken
CPerhaps they're better left unGsung
GI don't know, don't really Ccare
GLet there be Dsongs Cto fill the Gair
Chorus
AmRipple in still Dwater
When there Gis no pebble Ctossed
Nor Awind to Dblow
Verse 3
Reach out your Ghand, if your cup be Cempty
CIf your cup is full, may it be agaGin
GLet it be known there is a Cfountain
GThat was not Dmade Cby the hands of Gmen
Verse 4
GThere is a road, no simple Chighway
CBetween the dawn and the dark of Gnight
GAnd if you go, no one may Cfollow
GThat path is Dfor Cyour steps Galone
Chorus
AmRipple in still Dwater
When there Gis no pebble Ctossed
Nor Awind to Dblow
Verse 5
You who Gchoose to lead must Cfollow
CBut if you fall you fall alGone
GIf you should stand then who's to Cguide you?
GIf I knew the Dway CI would take you Ghome
