I skimmed across black water, without once submerging

Onto the banks of an urban morning

That hungers the first light, much much more

.Than mountains ever do

 

 

And she like a ghost beside me, goes down with the ease of a dolphin

And emerges unlearned, unshamed, unharmed

For she is the perfect creature, natural in every feature

.And I am the geek with the alchemists' stone

 

 

,For all of you who must discover

,For all who seek to understand

For having left the path of others

.You find a very special hand

 

 

And it is a holy thing, and it is a precious time

And it is the only way

Forget-me-nots among the snow, it's always been and so it goes

.To ponder his death and his life eternally

 

 

For all of you who must discover

,For all who seek to understand

For having left the path of others

You find a very special hand

 

 

And it is a holy thing

And it is the only way

Forget-me-nots among the snow, it's always been and so it goes

To ponder his death and his life eternally

 

 

One bright blue rose outlives all those

Two thousand years and still it goes

To ponder his death and his life eternally
