lyrics

With My Eyes

I love the warm, summer breeze
— The way the air moves and rustles in the trees.
The interplay of light and shadow on the ground
Reminds me of something.

Sunlight dancing on a rock,
And all of us lifeforms moving ‘round on top,
And what are we here for? It’s a mystery to me.
What would you tell me?

Freedom,
Wisdom,
Here in the Garden while it’s happening.
I see it with my eyes.
I see it with my eyes.

Simple thoughts give me energy,
And fill my brain with curiosities.
Like what are these faces for, and am I really always
Behind one?

Freedom,
Wisdom,
Here in the Garden while it’s happening.
I see it with my eyes.
I see it with my eyes.

I get to practice going out on a limb.
I’m a monkey on a swing,
And what riches I find, I know I can bring.

Freedom,
Wisdom,
Here in the Garden while it’s happening.
I see it with my eyes.
I see it with my eyes.
