The Lotus Unfolds

for Heather (together)

Two hearts make a revolution under
Sunlight and starlight as we stand out here
With each light we grow a little more strong

The lotus unfolds as people wonder
How the thought of love caught has brought it near
How rainbows can bring lightning and thunder

And we sought above but we found it here
Now as lightning descends from the dove's tail
To warm these two hearts having come this far

If they think they can stop us they are wrong
We bear witness out here and will not fail
Because we know now what they never knew

What this is could never be kept in jail
Because this is the love of me and you
And anybody else who happens by

Thousands of people are singing our song
Because love is truth and truth cannot lie
I see in your eyes the birth of a star

You: who have stood with me here all along
