[Intro]
[Verse]
I sell flowers on the corner of a broken street
White petals in the sunlight, carrying something sweet
The people walk on past me with their shadows and their pain
But somehow they leave lighter when they hear me call their name
I grew up in the church where dust dances in the light
Where broken toys find healing if you hold on long enough night
There's something in the water, something in the air
A melody that's playing but most people can't hear
[Chorus]
I'm looking at the morning light
And wondering how long I have this time
But every flower that I give away
Is one small piece of love I'm giving anyway
[Verse]
They say I'm different, special, something more than what I seem
I carry ancient memories in the corners of my dreams
The Planet hums a song that I can hear beneath it all
The Lifestream calls to me like some distant, final call
I know things that I can't tell them, I see roads they cannot see
The future and the past are tangled up inside of me
But when the weight gets heavy and the knowing makes me cry
I close my eyes and plant another flower in the sky
[Chorus]
I'm looking at the morning light
And wondering how long I have this time
But every smile that I can bring today
Is one small piece of hope I'm giving anyway
[Bridge]
Don't be sad for me, I'm okay
I've walked these paths in dreams I can't explain
The white flowers bloom in fields of green
The kindest souls are the ones who see
What I'm trying hard to make you see
Is that the end is just another beginning, can't you see
The light that shines in you, the love you give
It's how the heart of Planet lives
[Verse]
If I could tell you one thing before the moment comes
I'd say the world's worth fighting for, every battle, every sum
Of all the pain and loss and all the tears you have to cry
The love you find along the way is worth the price of life
So plant your seeds in rocky soil and watch them find the sun
Be gentle with the broken hearts, become the good you've done
I'll leave you with my flower, my memory, my song
The Lifestream carries all of me where I belong
[Chorus]
I'm looking at the morning light
And I'm not scared of what comes after night
'Cause every love that I have found
Is still alive, it's still around
And when you think of me someday
Just close your eyes and hear me say
The flowers never really die
They just become the morning sky
[Outro]
Morning light... morning light...
I'm still here in the morning light...
