Who has dressed you in strange clothes of sand? |
|
Who has taken you far from my land? |
|
Who has said that my sayings were wrong? |
|
And who will say that I stayed much too long? |
|
Clothes of sand have covered your face |
|
Given you meaning but taken my place |
|
So make your way on down to the sea |
|
Something has taken you so far from me |
|
Does it now seem worth all the color of skies |
|
To see the earth through painted eyes |
|
To look through panes of shaded glass |
|
See the stains of winter's grass? |
|
Can you now return to from where you came |
|
Try to burn your changing name |
|
Or with silver spoons and colored light? |
|
Will you worship moons in winter's night? |
|
Clothes of sand have covered your face |
|
Given you meaning but taken my place |
|
So make your way on down to the sea |
|
Something has taken you so far from me |
