Dusk

See my hand is moving
Touching all that's real
And once it stroked love's body
Now it claws the past

The scent of a flower
The colors of the morning
Friends to believe in
Tears soon forgotten
See how the rain drives away, another day

If a leaf has fallen
Does the tree lie broken?
And if we draw some water
Does the well run dry?

The sigh of a mother
The screaming of lovers
Like two angry tigers
They tear at each other
See how for him lifetime's fears disappear

Once a Jesus suffered
Heaven could not see him
And now my ship is sinking
The captain stands alone

A pawn on a chessboard
A false move by God will now destroy me
But wait on the horizon
A new dawn seems to be rising
Never to recall this passerby, born to die
