   The long roll of days now coming' thru
   have got me held between ... time and my dreams.
   I cast about ... in love ... and out.
   See how it goes ... it changes like the wind
   its not so bad ... something will come to pass
   I gather myself against these days
   like a man who loves the winter and draws his coat closer
   come, and play for me, life
   ultimately you must leave me beyond repair, I know
   but this far I've been blessed
   I love you more than most of my brothers, I think
   I seek your razor edged dividings ... decidings
   Your Karmic truths and gaping paradoxes
   You will make or break me ...
   Why should I turn away, you're the only game in town
   we just fool ourselves that there are others.
   So you begin again, here, some new incomprehensible rhythms
   my loves exchange ... rearrange ... the mirror continues to stare
   and I, day by day, ... can see better ... more
   We dance, you and I, ... pupil and teacher
   creator and creation ... mirrored hands of God
   groping towards ... something.
