New Life Lyrics

New Life has sprung up today

But I don't know how long will stay

Green stems peak from dewy ground

Water slides but makes no sound

Sunlight gleams through the canopy

Dancing, twisting off glowing leaves

The smell of pines and blooming trees

Fill the minds of all who see

New life flutters by

Seeking shelter where it finds

Twigs and branches broken now

Once were peering through the ground

Hold it long and don't lose your grasp

Finding time to sew the grass

Seeds and stems will soon be grown

Grab the plow and move the bones

Fickle time killing all below

Shining Sun brings life from woe

The clock's hands bring dire straits

Sands are mounding adding weight

Branches push through ages past

Breaking shattering molded glass

Rain pours washing dirt away

Puddles build a home to stay

Rusted steel under creeping roots

Old life hidden beneath my boots

Walking, soaked from the rain above

Finding nothing undreamed of

Hold it long and don't lose your grasp

Finding time to sew the grass

Seeds and stems will soon be grown

Grab the plow and move the bones

Boney hands digging in the dirt

Pulling sticks and weeds from earth

Seeds and stems will soon be grown

Grab the plow and move the bones
