I'm walking through the desert

And I am not frightened although it's hot

I have all that I requested

And I do not want what I haven't got



I have learned this from my mother

See how happy she has made me

I will take this road much further

Though I know not where it takes me



I have water for my journey

I have bread and I have wine

No longer will I be hungry

For the bread of life is mine



I saw a navy blue bird

Flying way above the sea

I walked on and I learned later

That this navy blue bird was me



I returned a paler blue bird

And this is the advice they gave me

";You must not try to be too pure

You must fly closer to the sea";



So I'm walking through the desert

And I am not frightened although it's hot

I have all that I requested

And I do not want what I haven't got
