|
I'm walking through the desert
|
And I am not frightened although it's hot
|
I have all that I requested
|
And I do not want what I haven't got
|
|
I have learned this from my mother
|
See how happy she has made me
|
I will take this road much further
|
Though I know not where it takes me
|
|
I have water for my journey
|
I have bread and I have wine
|
No longer will I be hungry
|
For the bread of life is mine
|
|
I saw a navy blue bird
|
Flying way above the sea
|
I walked on and I learned later
|
That this navy blue bird was me
|
|
I returned a paler blue bird
|
And this is the advice they gave me
|
"You must not try to be too pure
|
You must fly closer to the sea"
|
|
So I'm walking through the desert
|
And I am not frightened although it's hot
|
I have all that I requested
|
And I do not want what I haven't got
|
