if i could take a single moment
and shape it for all time
i'd choose a smiling memory;
when i held your hand in mine

if i could write a fleeting feeling
captured on the page
i'd craft it in all honesty
and tell of sadness, joy... or rage

if i could see a higher reason
in life's fallacious pain
i'd find the lord omnipotent
both in sunshine, and in rain

if i could breathe in your thoughts
by simply standing still
i'd plant my soles in virgin earth
yet never have my fill
