I've been looking through these eyes

Of black and white for far too long

And now these deepened colors seem so shocking


Bless the cold, cold moon

That moves the sea that makes the waves

That made this scene for me to see and be moved


Will my life be long enough

To see the things I want to see?

I believe this world is just too big for me


Every cloud that passes by

Is another cloud I'll never see

Maybe I just try too hard 

To understand all of these things

Bless the hands of painters

Who have captured melon skies

And starry nights for us to see and feel

For all of time


Will my life be long enough

To see the things I want to see?

I believe this world is just too big for me


This life is just a blink of an eye

A glimpse into a world we were never meant to see

So don't hang on to anything at all


And all the things we have

And all the people we have known

Will fade away so quickly

Into the deep


And memories of love will be

The only warmth we have in the end
