In my heart...


i dreamed i saw the buddha
 i cried i couldn't feel
she gave me such a sweet kiss
a taste of what is real

i woke up in the daylight
and left behind my dream
but i began to wonder
what the fuck did it all mean?

i wanted to feel the moment
the passion and the art
feel love and also sorrow
in each and every part
of this mystery
each and every part
of this life
each and every part
of this happening
that's happening
in my heart

today everyone was jesus
and jesus was fine with that
everyone was worthy
of a tip of the hat
to all that

all the plants and mountains
all the waters and the sky
all the animals, all the critters
on down to you and i
in each and every part
of this mystery
each and every part
of this life
each and every part
of this happening
that's happening
in my heart

i left the i in limbo
i left the i in the trunk of my car
i chanced to be another
we are all the stars

we're lightning in the firmament
 born to shine, then die
witness to the wonder
no more wondering the why
in each and every part
of this mystery
each and every part
of this life
each and every part
of this happening
that's happening
in my heart

i dreamed i saw the buddha
 i cried i couldn't feel
she gave me such a sweet kiss
a taste of what is real

i woke up in the daylight
and left behind my dream
but i began to wonder
what the fuck did it all mean?

i wanted to feel the moment
the passion and the art
feel love and also sorrow
in each and every part
of this mystery
each and every part
of this life
each and every part
of this happening
that's happening
in my heart
