THE LOVE YOU'RE LOOKING FOR

You have seen the sunlight scatter jewels on the meadowgrass;
You have heard the trees lament the winds and whisper as they pass;
Who knows where tomorrow waits or where was yesterday before;
Only that we are forever -
_ _ I am the Love you're looking for.
You have seen the clouds build crystal canyons climbing to the sun;
You have seen the light from stars long dead before Earth was begun;
Who can turn the scythe of Time or stay the shadows on the floor;
Only that we are forever -
_ _ I am the Love you're looking for.
You have seen the moon ride silver spaceships starward through her tears;
You have heard the ebb tide counting pebbles for a million years;
Who knows where the wasteland ends or who paints patterns on the shore;
Only that we are forever -
_ _ I am the Love you're looking for.
You have seen my shadow dance and waver in the candleshine;
You have heard my voice at lonely sunrise, faintly calling out of time;
Who knows where the lost years go, or sees the future through the door;
Only that we are forever -
_ _ I am the Love you're looking for.
You have found my ancient footprints in the crumbling fossil sand;
You have seen embossed the moondust where our future children stand;
Who knows where our life-paths cross, from whence we came or went before;
Only that we are forever -
_ _ You are the Love I'm looking for,
_ _ You are the Love I'm looking for.
