Dedicated To Those That Can Imagine
I miss the world
The bosom of the earth
The belly of mankind
The hands of time
The birth of a new day
I miss, I miss, I miss
I can only imagine
The break of dawn, and the close of eve
The setting sun
The rising clouds and sky
The moon and stars
I miss, I miss, I miss
I can only imagine
The everyday people
Their smiles
Their tears
Their faces
Their eyes ... especially
I miss, I miss, I miss
I can only imagine
My dear wife, my beloved children
My father, my mother
My siblings, my relatives
My teachers, my friends
I miss, I miss, I miss
I can only imagine
Color, red, white and blue
Depth, high and low
Nature, plants, trees and animals
Food, my dear mother's pasteles
Yet I can see
I can see
The Darkness
The absence
The pain
And nothing in between
And nothing in between
If only I could see
