There is a place in my childhood where the river meets the sea...
Stars above me, stars below me, my mind is so free.
Out in the ocean in the middle of forever,
just down the way from where the river meets the sea, there lies a magical pool.
It's safe in this place, in this brilliant space.
Butterflies in the air, butterflies in the sea. My mind is so free.
In this middle of forever sits a steep hill which is set on a small isle.
In the middle of forever
atop that steep hill
I watched God's awesome power light up the edge of the sky.
Did I unknowingly bask in the pleasure that is your love
as I took in the beauty of your nature?
Why didn't I hear your voice, why didn't I realize? My mind was so free.
How very beautiful the instances that occurred out on the sea.
My skin tingling and my spirit soaring,
laying underneath the warmth of your brilliant sun,
unknowingly basking in the pleasure that is your love.
