a string of brilliant pearls

yesterday we chose the harder way
today we must regret it most of all
we must proclaim there is a better day

what lets us bide here will let us stray
our spirits shorten as the days grow tall
yesterday we chose the harder way

serpent or dragon's mouth will speak and say
we have not hearkened to the proper call
we must proclaim there is a better day

we've seen the light illuminate the bay
colours return to the most distant wall
yesterday we chose the harder way

we see the waters and we think of play
this is the sort of pleasure that won't pall
we must proclaim there is a better day

far to the east we see the first dawn ray
before we walk we always have to crawl
yesterday we chose the harder way
we must proclaim there is a better day
