Do you hear the wind
in
the middle of the night
shaking up the leaves
in the bright moonlight
shift
your eyes to the left
while you're shadowed by a tree
then check to the right
for the sound you don't believe
Did you hear the whisper
from the darkness
over there
like words not yet spoken
for a time to come you'll share
and you
stiffen to a worry
while you're shadowed by a tree
then surround yourself with
walls
against the sound you don't believe
Did you hear the vision
sailing
through the sky
issuing color bright answers
to all your hopeful why's
then you
spoke before listening
while you're shadowed by a tree
so you'd never have to
know
about the sound you don't believe
And now do you hear the sun
shine
a brand new day
leaving drops of honey sweet dew
all along its merry way
so
shift your eyes to the ground
and leave your shadow by the tree
poise your eyes
high above
and enjoy the sound you are meant to believe
