i am not a poet night song

Melanie

I am not a poet, living is the poem
I am not a singer, I am in the song
And I ve got a story that I cannot write down
And I m with you but I ll always be alone
I may not be right, but I don t think I am wrong

Every note s an answer, every word s a sign
Every man s a dancer, following his own time
I ve found a tearful language that translates what I am
And I cried out loud, but they didn t understand
I cried so hard I may never try again
I may never try, I may never try again

Cleansing in the water, heal me in the light
Mend you ageless daughter, I ve been awake all night
Cause if your sands are shifting, I ll need to know what I forgot
I don t want much, but I need an awful lot

I ve found a tearful language that translates what I am
And I cried out loud, but you didn t understand
I cried so hard I may never try again
I may never try, I may never die again

I may never cry again
I may never try again
I may never die again
