the sage

Emerson Lake And Palmer

I carry the dust of a journey
That cannot be shaken away
It lives deep within me
For I breathe it everyday

You and I are yesterday's answers
The earth of the past come to flesh
Eroded by time's rivers
To the shapes we now possess

Come share of my breath and my substance
And mingle our streams and our times
In that infinite moment
All our reasons are lost in our eyes
