1
When I was young I had thoughts of a kind that still linger
2
Entwined with realities reasoning
3
I'd sit on the hill side and look out far yonder, imagine I'd easily
4
Fly away, to where? I don't know
5
But the imagery caught by my quick imagination would lift me
6
My spirit to conquer a fall
7
Well now let me tell you the simplest of stories
8
We've all been through this moment
9
And really we've all been through this birth
10
All praise this glorious chance of life
11
All praise this wonderous feeling too
12
All praise this time we all go through
13
This pain, this light, we bare so fast
14
Rebirth at last
15
And I wanted to be by my wife
16
As she'd labored and given
17
The child a life, she the purest soul
18
So I wanted to be by her side
19
For the very first time I said
20

Who could have thought for a better
31
Reason of just wanting to be there
32
Who could have thought for a better
33
Reason of just wanting to be there
34
For the full and simple reason
35
Well I wanted it
36
Wanted it
37
Wanted to be there
38
Out in a whispering of time
39
Can a mother and child love right away
40
Mother and father as their right accept a reason
41
As the child's eyes that dream on and dream a life away
42
So the moment I thought about release of life that comes on
43
And how hopefully wise we become with each passing day
44
I wondered at this
