Up high over street Lamps glistening
She stands a strange girl pondering
I wonder why she stands all alone
In a world all of stone.
Ch)
Look down over time & humanity
She smiles with a view of mortality
She feels no pleasure nor pain
Not in her temple of stone.
solo
Like ants in the streets our busy lives
And sand in the wind our cities rise
She wonders why so serious
Mortals of mere flesh & bone
Ch)
Look down over time & humanity
She smiles with a view of mortality
She feels no pleasure, no pain, no sorrow, nor shame
Not in her world made of stone
Not in her temple of stone.
Bridge
Standing in the middle of the rhythm of the seasons
She never need a reason why
She’s in the moment, time and again
When your feet are firmly anchored to the pillars of the earth
You can weather all the testing times
She never tyres cause time is her friend
And so she stands
Look down over time & humanity
She smiles with a view of mortality
She feels no pleasure nor pain
Not in her temple of stone.
Not in her world….
