A Teardrop for Chaos
Music & lyrics, 1978
I felt you near me
I felt your hand
Reaching out across the land
Trembling gently
Crying softly
Mourning — for there is no Plan
Just chaos
And teardrops
Angry gods and foolish man
Lovers
Dreamers
Crying in the sand...
Are you a dream?
Am I a dreamer?
Are we both lost fragment seekers?
Seeing clearly
Speaking plainly
Weeping — for there is no Maker
Only chaos
And teardrops
Errant man without a Maker
Lovers
Dreamers
Crying in the sand...
Grace, love, freedom
Peace for all
Shouting, screaming — it's an empty call
Passing swiftly
Touching lightly
All the symptoms of a noble cause
Chaos!
Teardrops!
Lost in the darkness we stumble and fall
Lovers
Dreamers
Crying in the sand...
Lovers
Dreamers
Dancing in the sand...
Dancing in the sand...
