White Sun

The sun is white tonight Tomorrow it will be red and bright in ardent stillness An ocean wave is welcoming Yet it is carrying all of my sins and all my troubles Hey hey where were they hiding The seabirds that return in the summer tide? Hey hey where were they hiding All my loving, giving, receiving? When they're back I'll continue my straying There are no days, there never is night In the icy lands of eternal, ceaseless calmness How many until you'll stand here Sharing the weightlessness of the island's intense wonders? Hush now soon they will fly in The turn that I left with my reverie Hush now, there's one that is crying Both its wings bear other birds' sorrows When they're back I'll continue my straying The sun is white and steadily bright In the land of tinder and ice in ardent silence Hold on tight to our vision The one that we've carried for so long And soon we'll feed the fire Doubled heartbeats sooth our souls' needs Stillness feeds our united bodies
