All I Can Give You

Moonlight and stars
Clouds and skies
Leaves of the grass
Truth, but no lies

Ship in the sea, life in a dream
Light through the darkness
To lead you astray
Songs, verses, all but cold silence
Dying in the end of the day

Moonlit beam across the window
A lullaby, all-changing winter
Innocent white to cover the meadow
With love flows all I can give you

Meadows in light, rivers and sky
Dawn of newborn life
Fields in snow pure white
Grass bathed in dew
Seas of innocent blue
It is all that I can give you

The kite of awe, the tear to fall, all dreams to unfold
Memory calls to a petal withering on the snow
Still bearing a hope with faith and love

Nights, darkness’ oceans
Lifetime devotion
Feeling untold, an unforgiven love
The heart and the soul
Bare grace of ever awe
Pure innocence of truth
It is all that I can give you
