lyrics

I picked you up to lighten the load and held you in the air
we slipped across the bridge on my back as i held you there
and seeing your darkness your blood and your lack of teeth i
came to understand you were
you were my son, you were my son!
i came to understand you were my son from the way you looked at me
and smiled a lived in smile
many truths many many lives
and then you said my name and I wept... wept a hundred tears
and felt a flooding joy, that comes
after so much suffering
