Bright sky blue

Who now fades too

Frames birds on the wing

Whose sweet songs too sad to sing

Now only an echo in my mind

As sky fades to black

I wonder if he'll ever be back

And if we had ears to hear

Would we act out of fear

Or could we realize

We often grew up believing lies

Deafened I couldn't hear that birdsong

Singing truth simple and strong

My eyes blinded

By selfish complications

Bright sky blue

Will my children's children ever know you

Those birds on the wing

Have a song need to sing

To their children and my children too

It's a song of truth

Unpolluted by time or tongue

It's a song that tells,

Of all being one

If you can get past your fear

It's a song you should hear

Deafened I could not hear that birdsong

Singing truth simple and strong

Blind I could not see that birdsong

Singing truth simple and strong
