Through this lifetime
And you replied...
The brook would lose its song
Had it no pebbles
The ocean would lose its majesty
Had it a visible end
The mountians would lose their strength
Had they no incline
And you would lose your beauty
Had you no fire in your eyes
...We stumble to leave a path
We fall to leave a scar
We swim to reach a different place on earth
We climb to reach a different place within ourselves
I asked you why we cry
In moments of great sorrow
And you replied...
The rain would have no story
Had we no tears
The forest would have no children
Had we no tears
The ocean would have no waves
Had we no tears
Life would have no meaning
Had we no tears
I asked you why we live
When we accomplish nothing
And you replied...
The sun would have no fury
Had we no passion
The sky would have no mystery
Had we no dreams
The world would have no adventure
Had we no ideas
And life would cease to exist
Had we no purpose
I asked you why you loved me
In spite of all the pain
And you replied...
The mind has no importance
When you are with me
The sky has no darkness
When you are with me
The moon has more radience
When you are with me
And
The heart would have no purpose
Had you no love for me
