Florida 1992

If I told you I never know fear
Would you introduce me to reality
If I told you I know fear too well
Would you introduce me to a dream

When I know my dreams up close
No sense that what couldn't be
Only the facts of existence apparent
Then life is like singing in a field alone

If my dreams don't come this night
It is harder still to remember last night
Only the facts of creation apparent
Then life is like swimming in clothing

When I meet my dreams up close
They never surprise me with possibility
Even today nothing surprise me with ease
Now life is like singing in an Ocean

My life my dreams flow together to peace
Singing in the ocean creation for its own sake

When ever I look for another world
I always find it in the Atlantic
Swimming there the name seems so much
I wonder what's the value in a wave

Thinking and dreaming of salt water not
Just salt water but Atlantic salt water
I am there in my soul in an instant
By car it is an hour away still

When ever I enter another world today
Swimming out from shore seems so important
I wonder what's the value in a wave
Swimming in to the shore seems so arbitrary
I wonder what's the value in a wave

Five thousand birds flew across my path
Walking to a place I needed to be
I stop and look up still they continue
In awe I'll search for an end in eternity

Each was one but none were greater
There place was new to only my eyes
How they knew so well to go I must share

Five thousand birds flew across my path
Not a day in a thousand does that occur to me
There seemed to be no thought to travel alone
All went forward and found time still for around

How they went in all directions and only forward

Five thousand birds flew across my path
I stop and look up and follow in my mind
There seemed no end no beginning just now
That last wings by like all will too fast

I hold a piece of divinity in me
It is where I started and too end
I feel it and never needed to see
Even when I'm not sure where I'll be

I could die in her arms of tomorrow
I see a hundred sunrises in her eyes
Two together that could have just passed

With a hundred possible lives to lead
Even then someone waits for me to win
Nothing is what I'll let slip through my hands

Storms I've created swell all around me
I'll rise through life everything is possible

By my last breath I will know that now
I will die and I know storms can't win
They are me and you are we
