Whole New Way

With silent feet my darling dreamer
She steps and skips around the fire
And though I know I cannot keep her
I sleep so gladly for a while
Now in ten years my darling dreamer
She disappears into the sea
To have her here awake from dreaming
Some things I fear never will be
I see a whole new way now.
I see a new beginning.
From the sky into the sea
A whole new way of living
Winter is here a nervous vigil
I light the lamp for her to see
She turns to me and her soft shadow
It stretches out along the beach
And they go again…
There is a whole new way now
From the sun right to the sea
There is a whole new way now
Such power running through me
I see a whole new way now
A season in full flower
I see a whole new way now
And I can’t live without it
