My dad is a miracle and so's my mom They fly over the blue They finish their dinner and then they take one another's hand And off they go to find a broader point of view For it's a give and take beyond the ordinary What with all the cats and kids that they've loved And they will not be alone
Well, my friends give me purple flowers and orange tea and goosedown spinning quilts and torquoise chairs we greet one another in a wild profusion of words and wave farewell amidst the wonderment of air In the laughing times we know we are lucky In the quiet times we know that we are blessed And we will not be alone
Well the light that stopped the night felt like forgiveness to you as the garbage trucks came bustling through their rounds you stared at the pictures on your walls and all the postcards from your friends as you heard the birds and old familiar sounds That's when you knew this world can't be saved only discovered And you knew things would be different than be before And now you will not be alone any more
