"Why Should the Fire Die?" album. It's not exactly how they play it,
but it sounds close and it's easy to play on a single guitar.

VERSE 2:
I can't see my reflection in the water
I can't speak the sounds that show no pain
I can't hear the echo of my footsteps
Or can't remember the sound of my own name
CHORUS
(solos)
VERSE 3:
There's beauty in that silver, singing river
There's beauty in that sunrise in the sky
But none of these and nothing else can touch the beauty
That I remember in my true love's eyes
