Another Life

Box like a cradle
Waiting all night
Little hands open wide
To the dawn of another life

Left at the gate
In the jade green light
Laid down by love
In the arms of another life, another life

Love is not one country or one culture or one name
Love is blind, that's not an empty saying

Named by your mother
For a bird in flight
For a safe journey home
Fly home to another name, another life

We belong to love wherever love is we shall be
I will fly to you and you to me
I will fly to you and you to me
