Ahava's Song from Prime by LeeSun

Quiet are your hand
And quiet are your eyes
Soft with quiet understanding of
The world that's mine

You found me wandering by the river
Clear and deep
I didn't know that all the while I was asleep
Now I slowly hear you
I've been sleeping all along

I signed my name in ink
To a letter just begun
And I threw it in the river's arms
Before the day was gone
I watched it on its way
And I feared for what I'd done
And I walked along the riverbank
To face whate'er would come

I realised then, I realise now
I wasn't choosing my own way
I only did the things I had to
Said the things I had to say
And now I slowly hear you
You've been speaking all along

I waited for a week
And I waited for a month
And I walked along the riverbank
To overturn my wants
My letter wrote itself
As I walked on and on
And the answer is as gentle
And ferocious as the sun

You found me wandering by the river
Clear and deep
I didn't know that all the while I was asleep
Now I slowly hear you
I've been sleeping all along

Quiet are your hand
And quiet are your eyes
Soft with quiet understanding of
The world that's mine
