Lyrics
The Test of Time
All words and music by Eve L. Rantzer
(P)© 2002 Rantzer Publishing/BMI, all rights reserved.
When your dreams go down into dark sand
Your aces burned up in slim chances,
If you hold your heart in both hands
It will stand the test of time.
When broken roads have drowned you
And the night's in flames around you,
It will be your own story that found you
As you stood to walk through time.
In the wave that pulls you under
And rends your hopes asunder,
Ah, but the days of rollin' thunder and steel
Will carry you through time.
All the vows they never gave you
All the prayers they say won't save you ...
But I can hear you singin' deep in this dance
And it will stay with me through ...
Time.
