lyrics

Mother, I am made of you, clouds and stone, water, sinew.
Stardust, your trees my breath,
comprised and reared, held in your atmosphere.
You are my home, your beauty wakens me.
Enraptured with your life, stillness, and majesty.

Oh Mother I am you, open my eyes, so I know it’s true.
Oh Mother I am you.

Absolute breath-taking wonderment
when I realize how you give and give and give.
You are my air, your magic wakens me.
I’m alive in you, I fall in gratitude.

Oh Mother we are you, open our eyes so we know it’s true.
Oh Mother we are you, open our hearts so we know that it’s true.

Heartbreak, when I see what I have done.
Forgive me, please. I am good at forgetting.
