"We never know how high we are..."
Till we touch the sky
the moon
and the stars
Till we look down and see the sky
And the earth fading
like water colors in the rain
Till your hopes are so high that god feels them
and we look down
there is nothing to grab
Till we finally reach our dreams
and the night turns to day
and we come home with the sunset
