Awen

I will wait in hope that you will return,
I will send my prayers on the wind,
I will ask for strength to carry me on,
I will leave your footsteps behind.

Time is slowly drifting away
With the passing of each sun,
And though I'm alone I am not afraid
As I wait for you to come home.

We are born to a new life,
We are born of the Sun
We are born to a new way of existing as one.
And today we will love and share all we know,
And today we will live and learn as we grow.

And on, and on we'll strive
We will survive though we falter and on, and on we'll search until we find our way back home.

And on, and on and on, we'll grow strong.
