I let myself be
Who I was meant to be.
Going round and round in the confusion
I meant to reach a conclusion.
I crossed the valleys and the rivers
I crossed the forests.
I found you in the backwaters
Of my mind.
Somewhere hidden, my happy place.
I needed my space.
I knew you would be somewhere nearby,
Between the crust and the sky.
Very much in my vicinity
But still very far from this city.
O Love, O Peace, be mine.
Let me be the person- I define.
Far from the battle of charades,
Away from the stagnant mirage
Come to me, I take a step to you.
Come find me, I beseech you.
Come to me O Love, O Peace of mind
I am waiting in the backwaters.

Far from the battle of charades,
Away from the stagnant mirage
Come to me, I take a step to you.
Come find me, I beseech you.
Come to me O Love, O Peace of mind
I am waiting in the backwaters.
