Life, the blink of an eye a baby is born, but why,

From spirit he comes with a message to give
Longing for life and longing to live
We nurture, we care, we show him the way
If we only knew he had something to say

Life the blink of an eye a baby is born, but why

Too young to speak the knowledge he knows
Then time passes and older he grows
Humanity possesses the spirit within
time to start all over again


Life the blink of an eye a baby is born, but why

Before we would listen his time grew near
Now he is grandpa who we can't hear
and the message he came to tell me and you
But grandpa returns to the baby he knew

the blink of an eye a baby is born, but why

From spirit to spirit we come and we go
The blink of an eye
a baby is born and now I know why
