we only wanted
we wanted to feel
but the sun and the moon
the wind and the waves

and then the trees
the trees lost form
as the road became endless
endless as the stars
stars we could no longer see

with each morning
each morning we are new
but the sun and the moon
the wind and the rain

good morning
good day
good night

we only wanted
we wanted to see
with the eyes of a child
stars we could no longer see
and all the stars
we could no longer see
all the stars
and the trees lost form
as the road became endless
