if you can find a place within your heart
for all the light that fades at end of day
you will know something of the human art
we're climbing a huge mountain from the start
at first it's easy and we think it play
if you can find a place within your heart
but then we come to a much harder part
uncertain how to go or if to stay
you will know something of the human art
in sunset skies we see the small birds dart
not knowing whether predator or prey
if you can find a place within your heart
you place your luggage on the waiting cart
and where you may then find it who can say
you will know something of the human art
the highest peaks are not found on the chart
and to achieve them takes a stranger way
if you can find a place within your heart
you will know something of the human art
(C)2007, Fragano Ledgister
