21. The Way Is Here

    1.
    If I weren’t here, where would I be?
    What was my face before my birth?
    Without these eyes how can I see?
    Where is my home beyond this earth?

    Refrain:
    The way is here, the way is there,
    The way is truly everywhere.
    No yes, no no, no joy, no plight.
    It needs no face, no eyes, no light.

    2.
    When grief descends and joy has flown,
    Decay does reign and growth seems gone,
    No ecstasy, nor hope nor spark
    Of love, I stumble and curse the dark.

    Refrain.
