Safe and Clear

5/02/07

It’s not the birds that will sing or the pleasures that life will bring

Like the taste of most anything, as we ride on a Sunday swing

Or the romance that we once had with a lover there both hand in hand

Just sharing laughter with a friend, and wishing it would not end

No there’s something more than all of this, like a universal enchanting kiss

Like an all-forgiving cosmic bliss, we really cannot miss

Some call it their inner passionate joy; while some will say it is a choice

Still some will even just try to avoid, the words of the sacred voice

Cause in the darkness there is light, and in the sadness there are signs

Of magic making up our lives, when we breathe in what is wise

For the flow is so wild and free and it nourishes most everything

Like the sunshine on the dancing trees in the early morning spring

Oh peace and presence cannot be a concept that we merely think

It’s letting go of our foolish needs to solve how we ought to be

For our healing will finally come to bare, when we drop those crazy hidden fears

And trust while we’re all living here, that the moment is safe and clear

Cause the moment is safe and clear

You see it is there now for everyone, who wants to feel the blazing Sun

And all will see that we are one, with a journey that’s never done

Still the truth sings out for those to hear, and dries up all our frightened tears

To let us live our lives more clear as we look out through the peer

It’s not about being on top or saying that we know it all

It’s simply answering the call and trusting we cannot fall

So let go of the silly noise that says we have reached the point

Where we think we are the truth of joy when in fact we are the void

Simply let the life force bring us up, and honour just how it does

And we will feel the inner love when truth shines like a dove

Don’t close it off with tendencies of thinking that our minds are free

For the truth about intimacy is how tender it all can seem

So soften that inner self and be grateful to others as well

And one day we will help ourselves when we finally let go of hell

Cause in the darkness there is light, and in the sadness there are signs

Of magic making up our lives, when we breathe in what is wise

For the flow is so wild and free and it nourishes most everything

Like the sunshine on the dancing trees in the early morning spring

Oh peace and presence cannot be a concept that we merely think

It’s letting go of our foolish needs to solve how we ought to be

For our healing will finally come to bare, when we drop those crazy hidden fears

And trust while we’re all living here, that the moment is safe and clear

Cause the moment is safe and clear
