In your eyes
the world seems so alive

the roundness of your lips
speak the truth
for those lost in time

your fingers play the tune
so long ago forgotten
made afresh by your sweat

time stands still
when you sing your songs

songs that will awaken
those of us asleep

you know not...who you are
but inside us we know
you’re the truth we are afraid to speak

you are the one
who creates us all
