Dreaming of a time
We walked on our lands
We shared ourselves completely.
We knew each other intimately
And the course of the stars discretely.
Dreaming of times
When our souls did sing
And the dolphins and merpeople rejoice.
Life was precious and dearly loved
Innocence and joy - our choice.
Dreaming of days
When the sun was warm
And light upon the earth did reign.
No darkness at all, as it was unknown,
And ecstasy was our only game.
How precious this dream
How far, far away -
The days of our innocence be.
We fell and we rose and we fell again,
Through experiences we had to see.
These experiences we can
Accept or reject,
But responsibility must be taken -
To acknowledge all things as a part of our past
And forgive, love, and know God has spoken.
Dreaming of times
When the future is pure
And the angels of heaven have arrived.
For they know that we know -
our responsibilities accept
As we create purity and truth in our lives.
