A sun going down I'd like to capture In painting or song the motion and mood A sky I would steal if it could be held fast The wind dies away it's perfectly still You can't exceed that kind of sundown Harmony's beautiful heartbeat of earth It's so smooth and still it's so restless Concentration beginning and end Rising! Breathing! Gleaming! Heart! Rising! Breathing! Gleaming! Heart! The moon rising high, light in the darkness Creating a gleam you can't really grasp Somehow unreal both tempting and scaring Indistinct phase, vague and reserved
You can't eclipse that kind of moonrise Mellow magical heartbeat of earth It's so slow and still it's so restless Steadily taking it's course Rising! Breathing! Gleaming! Heart! Rising! Breathing! Gleaming! Heart! Rising! Breathing! Gleaming! Heart! Rising! Breathing! Gleaming! Heart! Sound of a heartbeat Stable and certain: Life! Breath of a new day Welcomed in wonder Rising! Breathing! Gleaming! Heart! Rising! Breathing! Gleaming! Heart! Rising! Breathing! Gleaming! Heart! Rising! Breathing! Gleaming! Heart!
