Mystery and wonder
Did light up the valley
To be beat back by dark clouds
And a harsh reeking wind
And that battle staggered
Through three awful months there
Stopped for a minute
To start up again
Your hands like birds
In the trees
If the trees themselves were all on fire
Singing: "Baruch atta adonai"
And the river never made it to the lake
So the lake surrendered to the mountains
And the mountain's heart did fucking break
At the sight of your nervous hands
And oh, my love
So gently breathing
So my heart does softly swell
So her and me
Did greet the evening
With much red wine
And giddy yells
In these times
Of wandering soldiers
Building towers
On ruined land
I hold my love
To my belly
And feel her breath
Fall across my hands
I am so tired of the struggle
And I've grown tired
Of making plans
I think I'll quit
To the valley
Regain my strength
Start again
Where once we were
Some clumsy army
Now we are
Just lazy hens
I think I'll quit
To the valley
Until the light
Moves me again
So let's link arms
Sisters and brothers
And let's promise
Not to retreat
But there is glory
In our failure
So let's march
To the rhythm of fatigue
To live our lives
Without leaders
To live in joy
Without fear
Let's walk together
To the valley
And let the light
Redeem our hearts
Did light up the valley
To be beat back by dark clouds
And a harsh reeking wind
And that battle staggered
Through three awful months there
Stopped for a minute
To start up again
Your hands like birds
In the trees
If the trees themselves were all on fire
Singing: "Baruch atta adonai"
And the river never made it to the lake
So the lake surrendered to the mountains
And the mountain's heart did fucking break
At the sight of your nervous hands
And oh, my love
So gently breathing
So my heart does softly swell
So her and me
Did greet the evening
With much red wine
And giddy yells
In these times
Of wandering soldiers
Building towers
On ruined land
I hold my love
To my belly
And feel her breath
Fall across my hands
I am so tired of the struggle
And I've grown tired
Of making plans
I think I'll quit
To the valley
Regain my strength
Start again
Where once we were
Some clumsy army
Now we are
Just lazy hens
I think I'll quit
To the valley
Until the light
Moves me again
So let's link arms
Sisters and brothers
And let's promise
Not to retreat
But there is glory
In our failure
So let's march
To the rhythm of fatigue
To live our lives
Without leaders
To live in joy
Without fear
Let's walk together
To the valley
And let the light
Redeem our hearts
