The Keeper

Submit to the storm, walk into the waterLay open the heart, let fear be the lover A moon in the dark in love with the forest The keeper emerges the secret before us

Into the deep, I dream in slow motion We let ourselves go right into the ocean A moon in the dark in love with the whisper The keeper submerges, and the secret grows deeper

Give ourselves up, turn ourselves over Way home is worn, path unforgotten

Mysterious heart with strings in the river Some ancient start the water delivers Some new reverie that we will remember I carry it home and keep it forever

Give ourselves up, turn ourselves over As morning lets go, springs from its cover Day is reborn, sun is her daughter Way home is worn, path unforgotten
