"The Universe Was Our Mother" lyrics

Far, far away
Though we never saw it coming
It rained down from the sky
Translucent, it whirled in multi-colored light

I stood so still
Like a stone who's long been yearning
And I learned how to fly
The captain employed me as he felt inclined

Then I started to wonder
As galaxies passed us by
For what purpose did he leave home
And did he miss his life?
He said, "To be honest, his purpose on earth
He never could find"

All through the years
I thought of him as my brother
And he told me that I
Reminded him of himself as a child

We had it all
The universe was our mother
She guides us where she decides
And she wants us to dwell in peace tonight

Free from the bow of the hunter
Healed by the light in her eyes
That profound love I was shown
Forever changed my life
I knew in my heart that my purpose on earth
Was one I could find

World of spinning blue
I now come back to you
And the love that I was given
Is the love I'll show to you
