Sitting On The Porch

Watch the shooting star!
Descending from the sky
Hurtling through time and space
Messenger of a kingdom far
The tear as heaven might cry
For a world that's lost its place

Watch the falling rain!
How it crashes, countless
Collisions awakening the earth
Washing away all pain
The redemption boundless
Cleansed in this blessed rebirth

Listen to the wind blow!
Calling, howling refrain
Slipping through the break
In the facade that we know
Like the moon will wax and wane
It erodes all sorrow, all mistakes

Listen to the voices!
Their unison, such unison
Pulling at your heartstrings
Blurring out all other noises
That tear at our elation
Listen! Listen as they sing!
