If Not the Sun

If not the sun, then seize the moon
if not the sea, it's over soon
I'm gonna weep this willow song
And find a place to call my own

Then the night was above
And your heart was below
Still the rhythm seemed right
And your spirit was bold
so you aimed for the sky
With the arrow on bow
Raised your hands up in the air
and your reached for the highs
like a minor for gold
and you searched your soul for
something enigmatic

Inside your right
resides a wrong
I'm in the fields that lies beyond
I will not waste more precious time
Go find me somewhere down the line

Then the night was above
And your heart was below
Still the rhythm seemed right
And your spirit was bold
so you aimed for the sky
With the arrow on bow
Raised your hands up in the air
and your reached for the highs
like a minor for gold
and you searched your soul for
something enigmatic

I won't get down from your answer
I won't take no for an answer
I persevere like a dancer
a tight-rope walk on chance now
a glimpse of hope in the riddle
I slip through the eye of the needle
I still have love to rekindle
not all is revealed for a nickel
