You’re standing in the water. You know there’s so much more.
And it’s better late than never, and it’s never been like this before.
You’re standing in a moving stream with a clear sky overhead.
Take your time but let’s be honest. Look up, you see the sun is red.
Breathe in and then breathe out again, following a thread.
Eyes wide and hand on heart – remember what’s been said.
You’re standing at a crossroads not sure which way to go.
You scan the stars for some direction – time to trust in what you know.
Breathe in and then breathe out again, following a thread.
Eyes wide and hand on heart – remember what’s been said.
You’re standing in the water and the river takes its time.
But you feel there’s just this moment for you to make up your mind.
It’s just a day and it’s everything, and somehow, it’s alright.
Raise your eyes and look around. Lift your arms, take flight.
