I had to learn it from the trees
"Be not afraid," is what they said to me
And learn to live in what you see
Your days are the words
Fashioned before there was anything
Its light is nothing
Its not that of the sun
I had to learn it from the trees
That there is a light that never goes out
That's inside of me
That's given by the one who sees
The water that flows
Between open hands of the sky and sea
