The fallen leaves made an amber sea
Over which you floated like an autumn breeze
A sapling soul in a sea of fire
Oh, I was afraid for my Ophelia

But take heart my love
'Cause when I see you I see hope
When I see you I see hope
There's a world that needs what you got to give
Take heart my love
'Cause when I see you I see hope
When I see you I see hope
There's a world that needs what you got to give

Do you really need all of the things you want
I would take you back there
To where the river's from
To where the garden's green with a forever love
Singing you're somebody
Heaven's dreaming of

Take heart my love
'Cause when I see you I see hope
When I see you I see hope
There's a world that needs what you got to give
Take heart my love
'Cause when I see you I see hope
When I see you I see hope
There's a world that needs what you got to give

I'd have you give, like you can give
I'd have you love, like you can love
I'd have you live, like you can live
I'd have you be all you can be

Take heart my love
'Cause when I see you I see hope
When I see you I see hope
There's a world that needs what you got to give
Take heart my love
'Cause when I see you I see hope
When I see you I see hope
There's a world that needs what you got to give
