Mirror of the Sea by The Giving Tree Band Lyrics
If this life were mine, I'd pick the time
When I leave this world behind closed doors
Willingly or no, I have to go when you call me home
So this life is really yours
Help me to serve you
When times were good, I misunderstood
You need a few holes in the lampshade to let light through
When I had no choice, I heard your voice
Now I know exactly what I need to do
Help me to know you
Let the songs of saints adorn my ears
And my hands with rings of charity
I'd like a necklace of a gentile voice
With sweet words, like pearls, that shine with honesty
Help me to love you
If this rocky earth should be my bed
The entire sky would blanket me
And I'd be dressed in an endless forest
And I'd smile at myself in the mirror of the sea
Help me to be one with you
When I leave this world behind closed doors
Willingly or no, I have to go when you call me home
So this life is really yours
Help me to serve you
When times were good, I misunderstood
You need a few holes in the lampshade to let light through
When I had no choice, I heard your voice
Now I know exactly what I need to do
Help me to know you
Let the songs of saints adorn my ears
And my hands with rings of charity
I'd like a necklace of a gentile voice
With sweet words, like pearls, that shine with honesty
Help me to love you
If this rocky earth should be my bed
The entire sky would blanket me
And I'd be dressed in an endless forest
And I'd smile at myself in the mirror of the sea
Help me to be one with you
