Stone whispers Patience But we take chisel in hand Child begs Not yet But the sands have run out Sky cries Fly But we hold our ground Wind sings Free But roots bind us down Lover sighs Stay But we must be gone Life pleads Live But death is the dream We beg Not yet But the sands have run out Stone whispers Patience...
