Guided by the Now

I wanted to have a love so ripe
Another ever bigger opportunity
I wanted to live a happy life
But all I had from you was you asking me
All day long
What's right or wrong

So many years of anger and tears
I could not help but depend on you
Anxious thoughts, a cluster of fears
There was no understanding of wanting to
Simply be
Simply me

Can I know our thoughts lead us astray
Should I try to march in single file
Should I turn around and see your face
Concealing tears behind your smile

Resentment fell in love with me
Eating me from the inside and out
Darkness was all I could see
All of my world was all about
Deep upset
Life's regret

The past became a hunted home
Filled with empty spaces and ringing walls
I counted on a call on the phone
To make me walk, leave all my false
Friends behind
And be self-aligned

Can I know our thoughts lead us astray
Should I try to march in single file
Should I turn around and see your face
Concealing tears behind your smile
Would I know our love would last forever
Am I on a par with my own being
Am I on my way with my endeavour
Is this a way out I'm seeing

The blackbirds sing their song
They guide us across a faraway land
We realise there's nothing wrong
And run as quick as cheetahs through the sand

Never should our thoughts lead us astray
Never need to march in single file
Turn around and see one other's face
Remove our outer mask and smile
Always knowing we would last forever
We are on a par with our own being
We are on our way with our endeavour
And manifest our inner believing

Guided by the now, guided by the now
Guided by the now, guided by the now
Guided by the now
