[Wendy:] Hi 



Trader 



Trader sailed a jeweled crown 

Humanity rowed the way 

Exploring to command more land 

Scheming how to rule the waves. 

Trader spied a virgin plain 

And named it for velvet robes 

Wrote home declaring, 

"There's a place 

Where totally folks are free 

(Happily completely) 

Nourishment fills the prairies and the hillsides 

And animals stalk the mountains and the seaside 

And fish abound the lakes and birds the skies 

Signed sincerely." 



Trader found the jeweled land 

Was occupied before he came 

By humans of a second look 

Who couldn't even write their names shame 

Trader said they're not as good 

As folks who wear velvet robes 

Wrote home again and asked, "Please help 

Their breasts I see; they're not like me 

Banish them from our prairies and our hillsides 

Clear them from our mountains and our seaside 

I want them off our lakes so please reply 

Signed sincerely." 



Trader he got the crown okay 

Cleared humanity from his way 

He civilized all he saw 

Making changes every single day say 

Shops sprang over the prairies and the hillsides 

Then roads cut through the mountains to the seaside 

The other kind fled to hide, by and by, 

And so sincerely 

Cried. 



Making it softly 

Like the evening sea, trying to be 

Making it go 

Creating it gently 

Like a morning breeze, a life of ease 

Eyes that see 

Beyond tomorrow, through to the time without hours 

Passing the Eden of Flowers 

Reason to live. 



Embracing together 

Like the merging streams, crying dreams 

Making it full 

Begging intently 

For a slight reprieve, a night of ease 

Hands to touch 

Beyond the sorrow, on to the force without power 

Piercing the crust of the tower 

Reason to live. 



Hoping 

Like a budding rose, humbling shows 

Making it. 

Struggling lonely 

Like a desert field, break the seal, make it real 

Ears to hear 

Beyond the showers, on to the suns of tomorrows 

Burning the flesh of all sorrows 

Reason to live. 

Reason to continue 

Reason to go on 

Reason to live 

Reason to live 

Reason to live
