*Wandering the great abyss Floundering in the dark Searching the desert for an oasis, Home fire warming the hearth Floundering in the dark, The lost, the fearful younger self Home fire warming the hearth, Faded picture on the shelf The lost, the fearful younger self Once vivid in imagination Faded picture on the shelf Juxtaposed jubilation Once vivid in imagination Looking back through sands of time Juxtaposed jubilation Travels back and forth the mind Looking back through sands of time Searching the desert for an oasis Travels back and forth the mind Wandering the great abyss*
