i believe in cedar falls and i know i m no miracle but i long to see your face dried from crying and learning that you love to live if you ask a dead man what he s learned from dying he d say give and give and give that s how you live i believe in cedar falls and i know i m no miracle but in the song about birds we were sailors watching them dive into the sea you said that one up there calling out and crying that one s you and me plunging our hearts into the sea i believe in cedar falls and i know i m no miracle but darling like a little tree reaches up to the sun would you reach for the warmth inside of me could you thrive on my love oh let me let me love i believe in cedar falls and i know i m no miracle but i hope to see you someday as a fountain and i hope you see me someday as a friend and i hope we meet on the other side of this mountain where we find out love don t end it just winds and turns and bends i believe in cedar falls
