| Groung and center; we begin Feel the shape inside your skin Feel the earth and feel the air-- Ground and center; "how" and "where." Ground and center--don't just frown, Find the leaks and lock them down. Baby-games you never learned Bring you pain you never earned. Ground and center; do it child If you tame that Talent wild-- Girl, you learned it in your youth-- Life's not fair, and that's the truth. Ground and center; once again You're not finished--I'll say when. Ground and center in your sleep Ground and center 'till you weep. Ground and center; that's the way-- you might get somewhere, someday. Yes, I know I'm being cruel And you're as stubborn as a mule! Ground and center, feel the flow Can you tell which way to go? Instinct's not enough, my friend-- Make it reflex in the end. Ground and center, hold it tight-- Dammit, greenie, that's not right! (Every tear you shed hurts me, But that's the way it has to be.) Ground and center; good, at last! Once again; grab hard, hold fast. Half asleep or half awake-- Both of us know what's at stake Ground and center; now it's sure; What you have now will endure. Forgive me what I had to do-- Healing hurts--you know that's true. Ground and center; lover, friend-- You won't break, but now you bend. Costly lesson, high the price-- But you won't have to learn it twice! |
