Rivers run deep but my waters are coming back to you
I’m coming home, I’m coming home to you
I wish to see you with a hundred eyes
I wish to say your name with a thousand tongues
I wish to sing your praise with a thousand songs
I wish to love you with a thousand hearts.

Summertime and the living is easy
Your heart is jumping and your mind is high
Your life is rich and your body is good looking.
So hush little darling,
Don’t you cry
Everything is going to be all right.
One of these mornings, you’re going to rise up singing
And you’ll spread your wings and you’ll take to the sky,
The boundless sky of your love.
‘Til that morning, honey, darling,
Don’t you cry.
I’ll tell you why.
‘Cause love is the answer.

I’ll share my wish to be
A heart that’s open and free.
A heart that’s open and happy,
I’ll share my wish to be.
Ooo la la lei la la, ooo la la lei la la
A heart that’s open to all,
With no protection no wall.
A heart that is like the Sun,
Warm and open to all.
Ooo la la lei la la, ooo la la lei la la
I wish my heart to be,
A flower blooming for all to see.
As vast and open as the deep blue sea,
A place that’s safe and free.
Ooo la la lei la la, ooo la la lei la la
I’ll share my wish to see
a world that’s free
from pain and misery
Ooo la la lei la la, ooo la la lei la la
I’ll share my wish to be,
A heart that’s open and free.
A heart that’s open and happy,
I’ll share my wish to be.
I’ll share my wish for you.
That you may be happy too,
That you may be free and not blue
That all your dreams may come true.

Redeem me

The only revolution worth fighting for
Is the one that tells my ego,
“I don’t want you no more”.
Love is a funeral pyre, I want to be a flame.
I want to love you without a name.
I want to love you without a face,
Let me be a vessel for your grace.
I want to love you like the Sun loves the Earth.
I want to give meaning to my precious human birth.
I want to be a balm that stops all pain,
I want to be a shelter from the rain.
Love, redeem me.
The only revolution worth fighting for
Is the one that tells my ego,
“I don’t want you no more”
Love is the answer to the questions I may ask.
Love, such a sacred task.
Love, don’t let me wear no mask,
Love, such a holy task.
A fool asked a wise man,
“How do I overcome Death?”
Said the wise man to the fool,
“Love on the in-breath, love on the out-breath”
Love, redeem me
