Snowfall. Dawn.
Today’s a new day; I woke up under a tree.
I did not see it before, was used to being in cages
For the one in my company, I have nothing to bring,
It took five to make us
I were here when i came to the world
I were here when the world taught me how to be
I were here when the world showed me what not to be
I were here , always in silence , just listening
To that tree on the hill
On that lonesome hill
That saw me fight
My spirit killed
That saw me rise
And roll through my free will
M: The snow on the twin peaks is starting to melt.
O: There is a hill so perfectly round, God must exist.
U: Once you go into that valley, there's no coming out.
N: A mountain and a half still stand, despite everything.
Lines composed during a walk from Highgate to Hampstead Heath 1991
It has been a day for wandering
beneath this sky of early spring
