I’m mystified by you
Don’t understand the things you do
You try to teach me every day
Give me the right words to say
Deliver me from myself
Take me away to somewhere else
I can spend the nights alone
Thinking how to get back home
It’s a road that’s full of love
Full of stones and many turns
If you’re rolling you’re learning
For everyone there is a yearning
The fields are full the animals housed
The seals are waxed the walls are doused
Lime and water to disinfect
Linen wrapped to resurrect
The spring birds sing and pad their nest
Someday soon wear Sundays best
A celebration a feast to share
Bring us together until we bare
Each other up onto oak and pine
We will follow on the road in time
