Lyrics
A wise old owl high on his perch
To his parliament sings
Why all we know is how to fly
But not who made our wings
There must be more than whats between
My first day and my last
And at this proclamation
The forest was aghast
It's hard enough to see
The something greater that you need
Is in our future and our past
And your life from your first breath
Unto your last
What more to the heron
Could there be than catching fish?
For what more than his mission
Could the salmon ever wish?
It seems that there are patterns
That natures for us grown
But the only meaning
We'll ever find is of our own
It's hard enough to see
The something greater that you need
Is in our future and our past
And your life from your first breath
Unto your last
To see at least the forest floor
Open up your eyes
Then wonder how it came to be
To know that you're alive
Your eyes a window on the world
And only for a while
To see what's been and what could be
To know that you're alive
You're alive
You're alive
You're alive
