Then the sky was pink
And the moon was still
And we listened for the sounds
On the top of the hill
Then our bodies were cold
But our ears were tuned
And our voices in their murmurs
Asked each other what they knew

And as it turned out some had a theory
And some, well they had observed
Strangers sharing hearts and tales
Curious and alert
Young ones in their coats and hats
The dog with so many to meet
Older folks who'd come to know
The ground below their feet

We cannot love what we don't know
We cannot fight for what we don't love
So much mystery above us
But to wonder is sometimes enough

Then the sky was blue
And the air was hot
And we exchanged our words of greeting
On the paths that so many had walked
Then the kids they ran
To the place that I crouched
And the three of us we wondered
What it was we had stumbled upon

Lichen in my pockets
Soil between my toes
Bird song in my memory
The smell of salt in my clothes
I take it all home and it makes its bed
So that I can always remember
Even when I seem to forget

We cannot love what we don't know
We cannot fight for what we don't love
So much mystery above us
But to wonder is sometimes enough
We cannot love what we don't know
We cannot fight for what we don't love
So much mystery above us
But to wonder is sometimes enough

When I feel the sea wrapped around my calves
Something unfolds in me
I'm sure is part of this past
And I want to hold the hands of everyone I love
And guide them into the darkness
Let the water tend to their cuts
When I feel the sea wrapped around my calves
Something unfolds in me
I'm sure is part of this past
And I want to hold the hands of everyone I love
And guide them into the darkness
Let the water tend to their cuts

When I feel the sea around my calves
Hold the hands of everyone I love
