Watch the raindrops falling
Glide together
Hear the wind-bells calling
Chime foreverWhat wisdom shapes the pearls
Of our devotion?
A chemistry of shifting sands
And raw emotion
As lovers of the world
We take a potion
Then vanish like the waves
Upon a tireless ocean
Time and tide, the lonely strangers
Scale these climbs, the road I roam
Live and die, forgotten saviours
Strive to find their own way home
Single minded desperation
Shaping every chromosome
Of flesh and bone
Watch the eagles soaring
Flight of feather
In the snow drift thawing
Find the heather
If tendrils of our sleep
Could last a lifetime
We'd live our dreams
And never face another landslide
To find that missing
Particle or enzyme
And learn to live in peace
And love beyond the headlines
Time and tide, the lonely strangers
Scale these climbs, the road I roam
Live and die, forgotten saviours
Strive to find their own way home
Single minded desperation
Shaping every chromosome
Of flesh and bone
We define our own salvation
Fates entwine and down we go
No one hides beyond temptation
Tightrope lines with rocks below
Every faith and every nation
Carved in every language known
This letter home
Loves Rosetta stone
Time and tide, the lonely strangers

No one hides beyond temptation
