in the evening light
she ain't more than a day old
the circle's opened and closed
in the calm
a guide sits by her bedside
singin this place is alright
welcome to your new noisy life
welcome to the water
and the sweetness of night
the stars turn cooly
defying your mind
arrows arch away
right now one time
years that fly by so fast
are flowers in their garden
grass burst from his questions
even at dawn
as the sun climbs from its dwelling
where to go
i think that he knows
welcome to your new bright life
welcome to the air
and the will of daylight
the days turn cooly
defying your mind
