Lyrics
I'm the wind over water,
The clouds across the moon;
I'm a cricket chirping quietly
In a field in Cameroon.
I am steam rising skyward,
Dead branches in a tree;
I'm a possum moving through the night
In the wilds of Tennessee...
Yes,
I am all these things
And more...
Much more.
I'm the rain of afternoons,
Light from a falling star;
I'm a minnow swimming silently
In a stream in Zanzibar.
I am leaves drifting downward,
Knots in a wooden floor;
I'm a kitten crying hungrily
On a street in Singapore...
I'm clouds on the horizon,
Mountains of frozen snow;
I'm a parrot screeching angrily
In a tree in Borneo.
I'm rivers flowing seaward,
Droplets of ocean spray;
I'm an eagle soaring peacefully
Near the cliffs of Monterey.
I'm the blood of all races,
Heat from the noonday sun;
I'm a rooster crowing noisily
In a barn in Washington.
I am years rushing onward,
Weeds in a flower pot;
I'm a turtle swimming in the sea
Near the isle of Montserrat...
Yes,
I am all these things
And more...
Much more.
I'm in all things
And all things are in me;
I'm life and death,
I'm eternity...
Yes,
I am all these things
And more...
Much more...
And so are you...
(repeat)
