Here on this planet
In this garden
Where blossoms fall,
Life lost in seeking,
Self-deceiving
Or falling back to a dream,
You want to reach into the sky
And swim against the tide,
You want to rise until you fly
With every breath of your body
You want to fall in love again,
And at the end of your calling,
Could you live this life again?
With every breath of your body
You want to fall in love again,
And on the grey day of the dawning,
Could you give this life away?
And the trees march North
As the winds blow South
And the trees march North
As the sea floods South,
As we get older
Life gets colder,
Black butterflies
Deep in the shadow
Of the Winter
Between the furnace and the flame,
You want to reach into the sky
And swim the tide of light,
You want to rise until you burn
With every breath of your body...
