See my hand is moving
Touching all that's real
And once it stroked love's body
Now it claws the past
The scent of a flower
The colours of the morning
Friends to believe in
Tears soon forgotten
See how the rain drives away, another day
If a leaf has fallen
Does the tree lie broken ?
If we draw some water
Does the well run dry ?
The sigh of our mother
The screaming of lovers
Like two angry tigers
They tear at each other
See how for him lifetime's fears disappear
Once a Jesus suffered
Heaven could not see him
And now my ship is sniking
The captain stands alone
A pawn on a chessboard
A false move by God will now destroy me
But wait, on the horizon
A new dawn seems to be rising
Never to recall this passerby, born to die
