Time In Motion

Time forgets your sadness
In your darkest moments
Seconds turn to minutes turn to
hours
in motion

Spin the salt away like dust
in yesterday's shroud -

Time forgets your sadness
Tell me, has your sadness forgotten time?

Circumstance could bind your weary
hand to mine
And though you cannot see, we're not
so unalike

You
dancing in your solitude
through velvet midnights
You, with all your faces -
do you know just how you shine?

Treading softly on your tiptoes
So afraid you
might not know the way -
well I know you will find it

Dreaming, still, where roses stain
your teary eyes, oh love I know
you're somewhere there
Inside the many masks you wear
your tears undried

You, with all your faces -
did you know you're beautiful?

You, wearing your enigma
You, alight with your innocence
The life in your hand is warm
Your skin remembers the sun -
Has your heart forgotten
That you were born to be loved?
Do you know
Do you know
Just how dearly you're loved?

Time forgets your sadness
In your darkest moments
Seconds turn to minutes turn to
hours
in motion
