Touching all that's real
 And once it stroked love's body
 Now it claws the past

 The scent of a flower
 The colours 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 ?
 If we draw some water
 Does the well run dry ?

 The sigh of our 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
