This song I sing for Charles
I met him on the bank by the lake
He is no fake, I heard him there
The morning sun lit the top of the hill
It reaches inside me still, so still
The birds fly from side to side
Up and down they catch my eye
The forest was set on fire by its rays
It burns my heart in many ways
I sit in front of you in silence
Candescent rhythm, no sign of violence
The song rises up and falls
I see it now and then it calls
My tears drop on the water
For Charles I am the longing
I will return to spend the time
To put you Charles in my eye
