I saw the desert wind | |
Tear across the wilderness | |
I felt it blowing off the page | |
The teacher told me, "Son, | |
Always remember this" | |
And I have always been afraid | |
I read about the God of Moses | |
Roaring in the holy cloud | |
It shook my bedroom window panes | |
I did not understand then | |
I do not understand now | |
I don't expect you to explain | |
You've been a mystery since the moment that I met you | |
You never move but I can never seem to catch you | |
The Cornerstone | |
You said to eat your flesh | |
Before you broke the bread and blessed it | |
Before you poured the wine for every man | |
This is a hard, hard teaching | |
Can any man accept it? | |
Can any sage here understand? | |
You turned the tables over | |
There in your father's temple | |
You cracked a whip and raised a shout | |
My daughter asked me why | |
I said, "Love is never simple | |
It draws 'em in and drives 'em out." | |
I saw you there but it was too late to change my course | |
And I collided with a beautiful immovable force | |
And so the stone that I rejected | |
It has become the Cornerstone | |
All the maps were drawn | |
But the maps were wrong | |
The stars spin around | |
Another sun | |
All the maps were drawn | |
But the maps were wrong | |
The rivers are running from | |
The Cornerstone | |
And you looked me in the eye and fixed me with a permanent stare | |
I met your gaze and saw the forges of the firmament there | |
The Cornerstone | |
And the floods come up | |
And the rains come down… |
I saw the desert wind | |
Tear across the wilderness | |
I felt it blowing off the page | |
The teacher told me, " Son, | |
Always remember this" | |
And I have always been afraid | |
I read about the God of Moses | |
Roaring in the holy cloud | |
It shook my bedroom window panes | |
I did not understand then | |
I do not understand now | |
I don' t expect you to explain | |
You' ve been a mystery since the moment that I met you | |
