(ben nevus is a mountain in scotland)

some words can mean so many things
or anything
true language has no voice at all
funny how we find ourselves in places
we can feel this
armfull of flowers from a mountain fire-

up from the deepest blue my soul has been
where light begins
each flash of life becomes a star
every night i listen for you making
your three wishes
i never wonder what they are-

ch
by all means
float them down
to each lover climbing ben nevus
they will land
in the hand
they can teach
by the time
that we climb
straight through hell then we can feel heaven
worlds will meet
at his feet
endlessly

my lover knows me by my every move
theres no love to prove
there are no strangers at the gate
miracle of miracles
the key to the ancient future
where only beauty knows to
smile and wait-
