Shortime

 

Just for a short time we pass this way,

sunrise to sunset, through each magic day.

Clothes we wear now just fall away,

only our heart's true love will stay.

 

The rhythm in our breath marks the passing time,

a gift in each moment, the conductors sign.

Stillness and silence found within

herald the beauty that life brings.

 

Just feel the joy within you sing,

dancing the part each of us brings.

Just for a short time we pass this way,

sunrise to sunset, through each magic day.
