Emerald Sun

Helen Trevillion


Dawn drove the black from the shadows
Deep in the heart of the world
Restless, the forest winds were sighing
A lonely cry in the morn

There he was, sat against a willow
His eyes as green as the leaves
My breath froze inside my chest
He offered his hand to me

And he said:
Here I am
Don't cry
It's over now
Take my hand
You're safe with me

Here in the light
Of the emerald sun
There is a dream
In the palm of your hand
Let go of the past
That lives on in your heart
Move into the light
I'm waiting for you

He took me to a pool of water
A mirror straight to the soul
I gazed so long at my reflection
Like a child so deeply enthralled

He taught me I was someone special
His words, they set me free
A feeling that never runs dry
Awoke inside me

And he said:
Don't look back
Have some faith
We'll find the way
Take my hand
I'll catch you if you fall

Here in the light
Of the emerald sun
There is a dream
In the palm of your hand
Let go of the past
That lives on in your heart
Move into the light
I'm waiting for you

Here in the light
Of the emerald sun
There is a dream
In the palm of your hand
So open your heart
And open your mind
And move into the light
I'm waiting for you
I'm waiting for you
