My Roots Go Deep

I keep it on This ring, the feather of a swan You gave to me some years ago In the land of fire and snow In those days we burned brighter than the sun As we came together as one Can't take it off This weathered token of our love You made for me when we were new From threads of dreams in shades of blue In those days, we made circles 'round the moon And those times were over too soon Lord, I do not weep upon waking from a sleep Dreaming of heaven For I remember all too well, how close heaven is to hell And all of them crash landings I've endured Letting down my roots I am getting good at being still I've stopped chasing after things I'm like the church upon a hill I allow all things to come to me I'm a tall and mighty tree I can weather any storm, 'cause My roots go deep, my roots go deep My roots go deep, my roots go deep My roots go deep, my roots go deep My roots go deep Don't you ever wish there was a word In a language everybody understands? You could say when words were not enough To explain to others what your heart commands By uttering the word, our hearts would open Communicating freely without fear The fear we've held about speaking our truth When it might be difficult to hear We would find it easier just to listen Synchronised in every single beat In a place of purest love and deepest wisdom Maybe we would finally get to meet Li, la, la Li, la Li, la, la Li, la Li, la, la Li, la Li, la, la Li, la
