Epilog Lyrics - Terence Trent Darby

And if in time the day's defeat 

Should seal those lips I love so sweet 

I'd catch up to her wandering feet 

And lay the law down upon her sheets 

And if in time this love should pass 

And throw my heart upon the grass 

I wouldn't hang on to the past 

I'd sell my sorrows for a glass 

And pull myself from this morass 

And save myself this sombre cast 

But no so fast 

And if in time I find my soul 

And liken myself to a bowl 

That takes the milk but leaves it cold 

Then I will have defined my role 

To work on myself till complete 

And transform all that life secretes 

So I won't have mistakes repeat 

And save myself from sure defeat 

So peace to all that my voice greets 

So peace to all that hears my voice 

We survive because we have no choice 

So peace to all that hears my voice 

We survive because we have no choice 

So peace to all that hears my voice 

We survive because we have no choice
