We Can See Time

We walk in wonder listening to the stream The birds that flit, the grass so green We breathe the air and see the colours of the sky But do we ever really know who we are, you or I We listen to the quiet in the night We hold onto our joy with all our might. But do we see darkness when it comes Or does fate play that hand when it wants We feel the cold in the winter sky We know our hold onto this life With love we find the path so strong With love we know where we belong The stars are out there night on night We can see time in this dark of light Does it make you shudder when you understand That time owns you like it owns every woman and every man.
