lyrics

As wide as the wind

I have heard some words somewhere
they had traveled on a feather
some fragments of poetry
some distant and ancient light

I took those words and wrote a song
Loosely fitted like a cloak
with patterns that are not my own
but with intentions that are pure and bright, it said…

May your heart be as wide as the wind
May the sea glisten like the greenstone
May the shimmer of summer forever cross your path
And may lightness and love be your footsteps

So many times we hear some words
And build our worlds around them
Misconstrue what people say
conclusions that bring us pain

But go to a place inside of you
where lightness lost the darkness
to be there, where all is clear
to know that you're in your heart

A weary traveller takes a few more steps
On the road less travelled
He sees the birth of spring
In the woods where the poet sings, he sings…
