A child of the fates
She plays freely on the beach
The genesis dawn
Shines upon her like a dream
She's sorting through shells
As the waves roll on the shore
With a wonderous smile
She sees the truth within us all
Oh child of the fates
Hold this shell up to your ear
Listen intent
And dream your mind clear
As night falls on the land
And stars fill up the sky
Just close your eyes and dream
My dear, your thoughts are the real
We walk along a path
Some would like to say
Tomorrow is tomorrow
And the past is yesterday
A tree with many branches
A tree with many roots
Where it's hard to decide
Where you want to grow
Fate is known by the angels in heaven
Fate is known by the demons in hell
Fate is real for you to see
Fate is as real as you are to me
Fate is eternal
It's choice, it must be
I wish to make my own destiny
Child of the fates
Playing freely on the beach
She's sorting through the shells
While the waves roll on the shore
The tide is rising near, my dear
To wash the shells away
Tomorrow will bring to you
Another sunny day
