Chase the Dark Away lyrics
We drift along down rivers
Past the times we were born
Past broken smokestack factories
Graveyards of lost loved ones
We cast our dreams on waters dark
We just watch them drift away
We turn our eyes heavenward
But feel no need to pray
Chorus
It’s that day upon day
Trial upon trial
Wished upon walked upon
Smile we smile each day
Gonna chase this dark away
Chase the dark away
Chase the dark away
This life is short and aren’t we deviled
By all we’ve become
The inventory of our sins
Has struck us deaf and dumb
The stories we once lived to tell
Have long since faded gray
We know not of Heaven’s grace
What piper must we pay?
Chorus
These falling leaves
Might tell a tale
Of harder times to come
But let us not surrender to
Our fears and turn to run
For our dreams will rise up above this earth
To mingle with the stars
To return as healing summer rain
A balm to these ancient scars
It’s that day upon day
Trial upon trial
Wished upon walked upon
Smile we smile each day
Yeah that smile we smile each day
Yeah that Smile we smile each day
Come chase the dark away
Come chase the dark away
Someone help me chase this dark away
Darling smile smile smile smile
