Lately, the silence Tender and smiling Echoes divinings On and on
A pattern emerges Spinning in circles Further and further On and on
I've carried a lifetime This far and then some And I bet you I sleep through My final dawn The sight of the prophet Was perfect but crowded And after an hour it Dragged on
I listen to growin' Ebbin' and flowin' Nothin' like knowin' The Sun has shone It's a close little whisper A kiss from a distance Bliss in an instant Has come and gone
