Did you discover me hiding
Under a broken sea shell?
With your bright eyes shining
Did you pull me up from where I fell?
Or did I chance upon you waiting
Beneath an old Angel Oak?
Did I lay beside you anticipating
Who you were until you woke?
When our eyes did meet, I knew right away
You’d caught me keeping the world at bay.
You could see through me and so it began
You took my hand and away we ran.
We’d take a journey and we might get lost
But we’d stick together our hearts were crossed.
We’d brave ten foot seas and ninety foot whales
Try many new things, some succeed and some fail.
We would walk with the penguins and glow with the jellies
Eat with the Eskimos until we were full in our bellies.
We’d trek across deserts and slosh through the snow
And when we were tired, let the wind blow us home.
As a cloud carried us off, we’d blow down a kiss
To the world below and all of its gifts.
It was a great adventure and time had flown
But I don’t know where I’d be if I’d braved it alone.
