She was a flower
In my forty year desert
The smallest glimpse of redemption
Which held my hope
And the sands that shift under my feet
Bring me to a name
My holy land
She was
May I fear not the fire
As I drink the water?
May I fear not the sun
As I wish onΒ Β stars?
She was a cloud
In her I see a face
In my broken lawless sky
I dream of eyes
And the winds that blow confusion
Bring me all the truth
My only truth
She was
May I hold not to endings
As I pray to begin?
May I die one day in peace
Her by my side?
In my forty year desert
The smallest glimpse of redemption
Which held my hope
And the sands that shift under my feet
Bring me to a name
My holy land
She was
May I fear not the fire
As I drink the water?
May I fear not the sun
As I wish onΒ Β stars?
She was a cloud
In her I see a face
In my broken lawless sky
I dream of eyes
And the winds that blow confusion
Bring me all the truth
My only truth
She was
May I hold not to endings
As I pray to begin?
May I die one day in peace
Her by my side?
