LYRICS

And down we go again...

into the ocean of sorrow

towards the sea of despair

in the deep grooves of the death

lifeline running in roaring stream

"Like sand slipping through my fingers

nothing ever lasts, ever will"

"To impart elegance all living

experience the grandeur in giving

felicity found in commitment

tranquillity in mere being"

And down we go again

under the relentless wawes

into the arms of calm breakers

into bayou of forgotten dreams

Like sand slipping through my fingers

nothing ever lasts, ever will

"To impart elegance all living

experience the grandeur in giving

from existence into oblivion

not in cycles, but in lines"

Getting nowhere fast

by contending with time

accept the alteration

come to terms with your days

Down we go just the same

into the ocean of sorrow

towards the sea of despair

This river runs relentlessly

and this river runs deep

not in cycles, but in lines
