Ten The Riddle
I watched the Earth revolve from space
And the light turned cold today
Two hemispheres bequeath the day to darkness
Gold to grey
Why does love evade our soul
We born, we die, but never grow,
But I remember
I watched the sand release the waves
No emotion thrown away
Returned what entropy remained to the ocean's
Slow decay
The first to learn is last to know
The truth behind a trusting soul,
But I remember
When you and I could face the world,
And meet in the middle
Not just a boy, not just a girl,
In the cradle of the love that we found,
It was never ending love that we found,
Repeating the riddle
Warmth from the fire emanates,
Ash and emhers glow to fade,
Phoenix-like flames rejuvenate,
Colours ebb and flow, re-made,
To live a lifetime and never know
Where the answers come and go,
But I remember
When you and I could face the world
And meet in the middle.
Not just a boy, not just a girl,
In the cradle of the love that we found
It was never ending love that we found.
Defeating the riddle,
Balanced on the edge of sleep
These things unfold,
Is it harder than it's ever been?
To comprehend these things,
Much less to know
Just what is and what should never be,
Do spirit-guides beyond the maze
Take the last grave stone to graze,
Or is the Firmanment to blame
For the pathways home again?
The seasons of my time have honed
Such a tale in flesh and bone,
But I remember
When you and I could face the world
And meet in the middle.
Not just a boy, not just a girl,
In the cradle of the love that we found,
It was never ending love that we found.
Completing the riddle.
When you and I could face the world
And meet in the middle.
Not just a boy, not just a girl
In the cradle of the love that we found,
It was never ending love that we found.
