First there was a shell
Then there was a pearl
Then there was a boy
Then there was a hand
Reaching
Then there was a wave
Like no other wave
Then there was a sound
Like no other sound, of
Music.
Tadadadadadadada da
dadadadadadadadadada dadadadada
dadadadadada ...
A rose is how you shall kneel
A rose is how you shall know
Then there were two or more
Gathered on the sand
Singing songs of grace
(Alleluja)
Grateful for this place of beauty (2: 34)
And the sky began to blow
And day bled into night
Our ship began to grow
The sound of tumblers changing, nearby
Then we heard a shout
(Come on!)
The air began to bow
(Footsteps pounding by)
The wind began to howl
Someone cried "Look!"
"Our mast is breaking!"
Then we heard a cry
A phoenix lifted up
So terrible to see
So terrible to hear
The ripping of our lives
The sound of music breaking
Tadadadadadadada da
dadadadadadadadadada dadadadada
dadadadadada ...
Oh let there never be separation again
Then we heard sigh
We leaned into you
The nurses walked on by
You said, "I love you more than life.
"But I'm running without pain."
Then you curled up again
Everything went white
and peaceful.
First there was a shell
Then there was a pearl
Then there was a girl
And then there was a hand
Reaching
