lyrics

You were taken from the clouds
Delivered to a sweet embrace
Of a people strong and proud
Who made for you a little space
Sheltered you in sun and rain
Pushed away the growing pains
Knew that you were not the same
And didn’t mind

They kept your body full and warm
With all the love that they could give
Knew that you were cracked and torn
Gave shelter from the storm within
Held you tightly when you cried
And Oh
You didn’t mind

But in the end you had to choose
To fight so you could never lose
All the beauty that embrace you
The mindless mirror doesn’t show
The way we look inside our souls
Don’t you listen to what doesn’t know

Darling some won’t be beguiled
Don’t try and make them understand
You are not just acting wild
But saying, “This is who I am”
For, my love, they cannot see
Anything they don’t believe
We’ll become your family
In time

You were taken from the clouds
Delivered to our sweet embrace
We’re a people strong and proud
And you can make a little space
We’ll shelter you in sun and rain
Push away the growing pains
None of us are quite the same
That’s fine
