Brief Eternity
I hear my "hey la"Echo with my "hola"Beneath my footbridge, where I always singWhistling papa's whistleBouncing off the stoneClosing my eyes to find eternal springRolling down the hillsideSoaking in the twilightFloating with laughter and the spinning skyDeep in constellationsFathoming creationHow ciuld all this have come evolve from timeless timeImagine thisOne brief eternityOne tiny glimpse from GodOne small infinityWhere I sing "hey la"!Dropping back to hard landTicking with thr tock landFinding a portal back to timeless seasSongtexteMaybe someone's kiss isWhere suspended bliss isOr in the momentBefore your babyDrifts to sleepYour lullabiesLulla-bye youWill bring you back...Drifting off andSlipping into Somewhere you swear you hear……Voices, mama's "doo doo doo doo" Lovers whisper "doo doodoo doo"Loved ones lost are singing with you Psalms and whispersWorking in the garden has you……Breathing in the bloom and then you View the sunset viewto move youClose to truly understandingLife and death but nothing endingVoices living onVoices, mama's "doo doo doo doo"Lovers cooing "doo doo doo doo"Loved ones lost are singing with you Psalms and whispersWorking in the garden has you……Breathing in the bloom, and then you View the sunset viewto bring youBack to awe and understandingTo the placeWhere revelations seem so never endingMama hear my hey la, hey la…I hear Popa's whistle, can you hear him too…God has granted usWith this brief eternityA chance to see wondrous glimpseWithin a kissSuspended blissAn echoed voiceA spinning boyWho's drifting with the stars to sleep Aus Songtexte Mania
