Een keer moet het begin zijn
Seth Gaaikema
Once it must be the beginning
Once it must be the beginning
Whether you want it or not
Once you want to achieve
What you see in the distance
Once you will have to choose
From everything around you
Once you will have to say
There is only one for me
A woman to love
A heart worth fighting for
A place to come home to
A home, but truly
It may sound narrow-minded
With all that input around you
Yet it's good to say
There is only one for me
A vision in the distance
A timid attempt to
Become one with the higher
An ideal, a God
It may sound one-sided
With all that ecumenism around you
Yet it's good to say
There is only one for me
And sometimes it starts to rumble
To tear here and there
And your entire secure world
Comes crashing down
And yet from the remnants
- Even if it doesn't happen right away
That longing comes back
There is only one for me
