Jasmine

Night was slowly falling when I thought I heard your voice

Left you in the city when I heard I had a choice

I tried, I know I only lied

I was resigned to my life, babe

Here within the darkness, where my actions are my own

I can smell the jasmine, I can see our sacred home

I fear, I may have left what's dear

But I'll be here for a while, babe

Oh, my stars are wandering

So far from me, I'm blind, you see

Take one look and pass me by

As days go by, you'll heal--I'll die

I suppose my roots may grow without

Feet set in stone

Bones free to roam from doubt

All I'm owed is all I owe myself

Rivers of peace

Canyons of grace and wealth

Oh, my stars are wandering

So far from me, I'm blind, you see

Take one look and pass me by

As days go by, you'll heal, I'll die
