(Yeah father when can I touch the life within)


Yeah father when can I touch the life within

Yeah when the softness begins to move and stir

Yeah father when the wind is blowing ice bound

Yeah when the light comes, yeah when the night leaves.

Yeah father when for I cannot see the ship masts

Yeah when the moon breaks yeah when the stars

Ah Father why should I wait my hands are frozen

Yeah when thy feet are yeah when thy eyes

Father, Father, the waves are blowing higher

Yeah when they cover thee when the morning comes

Father Father the foam is crystal fragments

Yeah the water stiffens as it foams

Father Father bring the morning to me

The motion of the vortex calls to me my name

Yeah, when the lights are quenched in icy water

Yeah when the night has lost its spark of flame

Father Father take me where you’re going

Nay where I go your feet may never come.

Yeah when I go your feet will surely come
