[Verse 1] You pour the morning into dusk One silver cup, one cup of rust A careful hand, a patient flame Nothing lost, but nothing quite the same [Chorus] Temper the river, temper the fire Meet at the crossing, rise a little higher Water to wine, and the rough edges mend A little at a time, till the two become friends [Verse 2] One foot on stone, one in the stream You stitch the waking world to dream No crown, no hurry, no command Just steady balance in your open hand [Instrumental Solo] [Chorus] Temper the river, temper the fire Meet at the crossing, rise a little higher Water to wine, and the rough edges mend A little at a time, till the two become friends [Bridge] If the road divides, don’t force a sign Let the opposite currents share the line What seemed apart can find its place When patience gives the heart some space [Instrumental Solo] [Outro] One foot forward, one foot still A quiet measure, a gentler will The cups stay full, the waters blend And every turning finds a middle end
