This city is on fire tonight
Sweet forest fire, silent and unseen
The sleepers awaken
Your eyes are open, I know you're smiling at me
Some people say you're not here anymore
But your trees stand proud, and laugh and let them pass
So mischievous and holy
And this is a question I'll never want to ask
There's a moon out here, and she wants to be glowing
There's a river down here, and she wants to go back to the sea
I am your child, Mother
Crying to be consoled
Now that I know you
Do you recognize me?
There's a part of me that wants to be silent
Immersed in your movement
Stung by your grace
And here is your song, and I'll sing it
I'm coming home
I've never been away
There's a moon out here, and she wants to be glowing
There's a river out here, and she wants to go back to the sea
I am your child, Mother
Crying for you to console me
Now that I know you
Do you recognize me?
There's a moon out here, and she wants to be glowing
There's a river out here, and she wants to go back to the sea
I am your child, Mother
Crying to be consoled
Now that I know you
You recognize me
