i take my place along the shore and i wait for the tide
it seems i've passed this way before in an earlier time
i hear a voice like mystery blowing warm through the night
the silent moon embraces me and i'm drawn to her light
i follow footprints in the sand to a circle of stone
find a fire burning bright 'though i came here alone
and in the play of shadows cast i can dimly discern
the shapes of all who've gone before calling me to return
[chorus:]
there are no names that fit these faces
there are no lines that can define these ancient spaces
the spirits dance across the ages
and melt into a river of souls
[refrain espagnole:]
lo que es mio (what is mine)
lo que es de dios (what is god's)
lo que es del rio (what is the river's)
melt into a river of souls
i take my place along the shore and i wait for the tide
it seems i've passed this way before in an earlier time
to every man the mystery sings a different song
he fills his page of history, dreams his dreams and is gone
[chorus & refrain] |
