When a little seed buds
I feel the growing weight of you
Gave the innocent girl warmth
from the stone-like body with a heart
You'll trace the world
Not written in the picture book you've read
Fingers move back and forth
That's how we made it here

Out of the cradle that raised you
Out of the cradle that raised you
To the stable land below you
Each time you remember this melody
Know you're loved

Go into the glow while I'm in a doze longer than usual
Time can kill an ancient tree
Can also grow a little seed
Dear maiden, take my thought inside
Feel the breath of all life
Now the horizon bears the light
Under the sun, pray for you
Hope my pulse stays with you

Another day, another pain
The farther you go
What you see and who you touch
Might leave wounds that hurt you over and over again
But don't be scared
Open your hands
So that love can heal
Keep feeding the seed
It could flourish
I know you know that's how we live

Out of the cradle that raised you
To the stable land below you
I might be too worried
Without me, know you're loved

Go into the glow while I'm in a doze longer than usual
Time can kill an ancient tree
Can also grow a little seed
Day after day the gentle light will change you over time
As spring cloaks herself in green
You'll wear the warmth around you

One fleeting era's faded here
Nothing more human than this
Now the horizon bears the light
Under the sun, pray for you
Now the sky bears the light
Your pulse will stay with mine
