Connecting Things
Tears have fallen so many times
On a new moon night, a sea was born
Words woven from afar
In the stories of the storytellers
Long ago, someone here
Gently opened a heart that felt like it would burst
Singing it out, always
Able to reach anywhere
Don’t let the light inside you fade
It will connect and eventually
Shine bright
Passing down stories and sharing them
A ship sailing through the waves of time
Facing the bright sky of today
Handing it over to tomorrow
In the sea, wanting to see God
The shadow of you appears beyond
If only I could
Climb back up the flow of time, I could meet that person
This world was born and then
To every name given
There’s a wish
Moved by your lovely smile
Even when I’m swayed by the storm and stop
I want to protect everything, even if it means giving it all
Because feelings transform into strength
Passing down stories and sharing them
A ship sailing through the waves of time
Facing the bright sky of today
Handing it over to tomorrow
