1. Dare to love again,
Am……… G …..C

Love is the only revenge,
Am……..G….Am
Dare to love again.
- Rising like the sea,
Rising by degrees;
Rise with love for what might be,
Rising like the sea. - If not now then when?
If not now then when?
The future holds no promises;
Dare to love again. - If not us then who?
If not us then who?
The Earth depends on all we do,
If not us then who? - Restless hearts won’t sleep,
Restless hearts won’t sleep,
Brave a lover’s leap of faith
Untold fathoms deep - Repeat Verse 1.

So we join the Rising Tide.
4. Well the Earth is on the edge and we’re set upon a knife,
We have risked the whole creation and we’re in a bit of strife,
Well the Earth is on the edge and we’re set upon a knife,
So we join the Rising Tide.

If we waken from the dream.
5. Will you gather ’round the fire, will you share a little light,
Will you stand with us as one, as we set the world to right,
Will you gather ’round the fire, will you share a little light,
Will you join the Rising Tide.
Chorus
We’d be alright if someone took the lead,
We’d be alright with an ace tucked up our sleeve,
We’d be alright if we waken from the dream,
If we waken from the dream.
