Landscapes appear
From a cloud of smoke
Dark night is gone
In a single stroke

Moments burst into colors
As I lay awake
Beautiful dreams
Born from mistakes

Feet on the palette
A paintbrush oar in my hand
On the painted river
I drift to childhood's end

Created anew
Will soon be left behind

At the bow I stand
A lifelong journey
To reach the land
Where water and stars once met

I dive headfirst
Into the sea of memories
Collecting pearls
For my inner treasury

When I cannot recall
I'll reach the waterfall
That's when I can
Erase the slate again

Feet on the palette
A paintbrush oar in my hand
On the painted river
I drift to childhood's end

Created anew
Will soon be left behind

At the bow I stand
A lifelong journey
To reach the land
Where water and stars once met

Feet on the palette
A paintbrush oar in my hand
On the painted river
I drift to childhood's end
