Footprints

I am forever

Walking these shores

Of sand and these white horses

The tide will wipe out my footprints

But I know you will find me

 

And what is right

What is wrong

What is true

What is not

 

Their shadow, which destroys the land

Soars like an eagle across the sun

Take a look at the cities and all of these towns

All these motorways and these roads

 

And what is right

What is wrong

What is true

What is not

 

Your business of good, and business of bad

They don’t mean a thing my friend

 

If you go to the rivers or to the mountains

To the fields or to the ocean

At the ends of the earth you will find that cave

Inside a lantern to heal a broken heart
