Sooth
words and music by Stephen Barling
Waiting on a moment
just to feel the dew
while away the evenings and the hours
Wonder what come may
wonder what we're coming to
all we take away are only flowers
And this is not a lie
this is not a lie
and this is not the truth
this is not an answer to our questions
it's just a little sooth
I watched her slip away
I watch her while she's sleeping
I wonder if she's ever gonna wake up
For she is not alive
life she's only keeping
coming 'round again to keep her open
And this is not a lie...
The blinking of an eye
the passing of a universe
all the dreams enfolded are partaken
Universal sky
universal ocean
universal nebuli awaken
And this is not a lie
this is not a lie
and this is not the truth
this is not a bucket to the ocean
it's just a little sooth
This is not a moral for the fable
it's just a little sooth
This is not an answer to our questions
it's just a little sooth
