Flower of Time



Yes, we didn’t even realize
It was love
Yes, when we met
That day


Every time
You say my name intimately
I just can’t help it
You’re the only one
I love, I love

You know my love?
The one
Who loves me
Is you
I know you’re my first and my last, goin’ on
ah, somewhere in a corner
Of this wounded star
Something cried out
And was born
everlasting love

The wind blows, flowers bloom
And you smile
Modestly, but firmly
You smile

A short while ago
I didn’t have a dream to follow
My lies piled up
As I painted over happiness

I know your love
Even in a storm
At the ends of the rainy sky
There’s always a bright star
Twinkling and shining down on you
ah, I reach out to the future
As if in prayer
I must nurture
This light

I hear your voice in the wind.
If I come back as something,
I will be loving you.
I’ll gallantly protect you
I promised, flower of time

You know my love?
The one
Who loves me
Is you
I know you’re my first and my last, goin’ on

ah, somewhere in a corner
Of this wounded star
Something cried out
And was born
everlasting love
ah, if I just accept this love
Even pain
Can be woven up into this gentle
everlasting love
It’s a flower of time… love
