I Am Not A Poet Night Song lyrics

I am not a poet, living is the poem
I am not a singer, I am in the song
And I`ve got a story that I cannot write down
And I`m with you but I`ll always be alone
I may not be right, but I don`t think I am wrong

Every note`s an answer, every word`s a sign
Every man`s a dancer, following his own time
I`ve found a tearful language that translates what I am
And I cried out loud, but they didn`t understand
I cried so hard I may never try again
I may never try, I may never try again

Cleansing in the water, heal me in the light
Mend you ageless daughter, I`ve been awake all night
`Cause if your sands are shifting, I`ll need to know what I forgot
I don`t want much, but I need an awful lot

I`ve found a tearful language that translates what I am
And I cried out loud, but you didn`t understand
I cried so hard I may never try again
I may never try, I may never die again

I may never cry again
I may never try again
I may never die again

STONEGROUND WORDS

Sand me down to the nerve
Made to live on stouneground words
Imagine that, you`ve done all that
And I come back for more
Imagine that, I lived on that
And I will live for more

I entered dancing and looked for my partner
I thought the path could be a double road
You played my heart like a drum beating warning
Oh, I guess I`m gonna dance this one alone

I`ll go to the garden that follows the seasons
Live in the field where the healing grass grows
Go to the mountains where air`s clear for breathing
Clear is just another way to see
I feel to know

Cleanse in the ocean, bathe in the power -
