Intro:
Seven days and seven nights
Hands of clay and breath of life

In the garden stands a tree
And a woman scorned


Secrets burning in the dark
Fractured stars and scattered light
Spinning out a memory

As a planet's born

Are we the sum of all we've chosen to believe?

Can I be somewhere in between?

Verse 1:

I was raised by a man of reason
In the elegance of truth
Who plays with math like music

And yearns for proof
So he combs the ground for a pattern
And he scours the sky

And his kindness grows the more he knows
Humbled by the climb


Refrain: Oh

Verse 2:

His heart belongs to a woman
As selfless as the air
A helper and a holder

With one sweet hour of prayer
She kneels below the window
And speaks to God above

Whose quieting forgiveness
Feels like a mother's love


Refrain: Oh

Verse 3

They have a boy with a joyful wit
And a puzzled painter's mind
Who finds inspiration

In nature's great design
From the time that I was a baby girl
I could wrap myself in song

When I close my eyes, my fingers fly
And the angels sing along


Refrain: Oh

Outro:

Seven days and seven nights
Oh, to be a satellite
Yet I've circled round the truth

So today, I turn to you.
