I took you for granite As the stone unmoved of mountains The ground on which I stood My daring feat to fight And fight though I did with Father Sky All the mere constellation rises It was you and I, after all Quietly gardening my dreams Steady, like the ocean waving endlessly hello Well, hello, I'm doing good, Mother, please, be pleased to know And know, deep within your endless heart You give me love What more could the Son ask, but for the fuel to shine? And know now, that I knew it all along—yes, all along I was just embarrassed at the infinite imbalance But here’s a song, for what it’s worth Mother, I'm sorry I ignored you - I can’t afford to anymore Time has us both in line for dying Let me take you for granite As the stone unmoved of mountains The ground on which I stand, my feat to love And love, yes, I can, from your teachings Quiet teachings, I will show you love
