about

This is a song to relax into, with dreamy music and lyrics to settle the soul into a state of calm and peace. Also, some very cool vocals. We hope you enjoy!

lyrics

Like a white gull rising in a shaft of sun,

Wings out-stretched, filled with the wind,

A solitary traveler in an oil-black sky,

I shall return to you.



Like a Coho salmon from uncharted seas,

Jumping, twisting, with silver back arched,

An acrobat dancing in rainbow spray,

I shall return to you.



Like a prodigal son, turning from thieves,

From crack houses, jails, from unholy gutters

Littered with glass and human debrisI shall return to You.



You shall clean me and comfort me,

And bathe me in warm spring water

You shall dress me in white linen

And feed me a feast of Thanksgiving.



Your forgiveness shall cure me, forever,

Your love shall resurrect me,

When like a white gull rising,

I shall return to you.
