lyrics

The symphony of rain and wind
tells me I can’t go home again.
Tells me to take all that I’ve been
and throw it to the rain and wind.

The tapestry of star and stone
tells me again I can’t go home.
Tells me to take all that I've known
and give it to the star and stone.

And I know that one day I’ll be gone
but I’ll be back, like the night, like the dawn.
I'll be back in the morning.

The litany of light and leaf
tells me i’m just a petty thief
whose wicked ways will come to grief
so throw them to the light and leaf.

The mystery of moon and sun
tells me the war is never won.
Never finished, never done
here beneath the moon and sun.
