I saw myself today and I was never one
To think that I was beautiful
My shadow started dancing in the setting sun
I skipped the rocks I hit the water
Every time I’m with you I give in
Every time I’m with you I give into this temptation
We get busy thinking with our skin
We get busy thinking that the world is our creation
You show me
Patience patience
Power power
Passion passion

You show me

You show me
I wander through the garden of the spiritual world
Where everything’s unusual
I found a way of talking with these musical words
You found a way to understand it
Every time I’m with you I give in
Every time I’m with you I give into this temptation
We get busy thinking with our skin
We get busy thinking that the world is our creation
You show me
Patience patience
