|
I'm walking through the desert |
|
And I am not frightened although it's hot |
|
I have all that I requested |
|
And I do not want what I haven't got |
|
I have learned this from my mother |
|
See how happy she has made me |
|
I will take this road much further |
|
Though I know not where it takes me |
|
I have water for my journey |
|
I have bread and I have wine |
|
No longer will I be hungry |
|
For the bread of life is mine |
|
I saw a navy blue bird |
|
Flying way above the sea |
|
I walked on and I learned later |
|
That this navy blue bird was me |
|
I returned a paler blue bird |
|
And this is the advice they gave me |
|
"You must not try to be too pure |
|
You must fly closer to the sea" |
|
So I'm walking through the desert |
|
And I am not frightened although it's hot |
|
I have all that I requested |
|
And I do not want what I haven't got |
