The sunrise plays its light upon my upturned face
I’m just another member of this human race
The child upon your knee with peacock feathered hair
She smiles unknowingly blissfully unaware

I look into your eyes and you look into mine
And in that altered moment how my life began to shine

Everything I am
Everything I do
Every waking moment is bound up in thoughts of you
First I was asleep
Then I was awake
Your grace is always there in every breath I take

It might have seemed if I had somehow turned my back
As if I’d modified my angle of attack
I'm only human but when my mistakes are weighed
I'll throw them on this funeral pyre that I have made

Yet even after all these years I still know where you are
You’re in my heart and in the strings of my guitar

Everything I am
Everything I do
Every waking moment is bound up in thoughts of you
First I was asleep
Then I was awake
Your grace is always there in every breath I take

I know you won’t desert me in my hour of need
I feel your energy in one rudraksha bead
You give me everything for nothing in return
And I will never ever be too old to learn

I see myself reflected in your ancient eyes
I stand before you naked crying to the skies
Your touch reveals the inner light that makes me whole
You cut through the illusions I have built around my soul

Everything I am
Everything I do
Every waking moment is bound up in thoughts of you
First I was asleep
Then I was awake
Your grace is always there in every breath I take
