lyrics

You can hear the sound of the softly mourning dove
Crying low in the weak light of a cloudy day
From the trees a plaintive echo as the leaves they turn and go
So vividly they show but not to stay

You can smell the damp earth in the scent upon the wind singing sore beneath the burden of a heavy sky
And though the mountains seems so strong
they still tremble at the song and resound with the longing
in a silent sigh

If you’re going home you’ve got to go alone
You can share another’s world but only live in your own
Only when you can be with your own mystery
can you claim the fullness of your own power and beauty

You can taste the ocean’s sting in the misty evening
As the sun boldly bleeds in a passion pink
And though the light will fade away, the night anticipates the day and glows in it’s own way at the lonesome brink

If you’re going home you’ve got to go alone
You can share another’s world but only live in your own
Only when you are free for your own mystery
Can you claim the fullness of your own power and beauty
