By The River Of Contemplation Poem by Mark Heathcote

We sat by the river of contemplation
And girl you did whisper unto me
Like a summer breeze
All the secrets of your world to me
And I was so, mesmerised
I unlearned how to breathe
I unlearned all the reasons for being
Being, being alone & afraid.

Yeah, we sat by the river of contemplation
And slowly we sank into one subconscious
Into that one subconscious, sea
Sea of reflection

And girl you did whisper unto me
Like a summer breeze
All the secrets of your world to me
Love, we held the star's and God held-us
Love, we held the star's, and the star's held us
Subliminally, sublime! Girl, you were always mine

O' yeah I unlearned all the reasons for being
Being, being alone & afraid
I felt my anger & hate transformed-into-love
I felt the summer's burn in my blood
Burning with the knowledge of our love
As we sank into one subconscious
Into that one subconscious, sea
Sea of reflection

O, yeah I unlearned all the reasons for being
Being, being alone & afraid
And girl you did whisper unto me
Like a summer breeze
All the secrets of your world to me
And I was so, mesmerised
I unlearn how to breathe
As we sank into one subconscious
Into that one subconscious, sea
Sea of reflection

Girl, just you and me
Love, we held the star's and God held-us
Love, we held the star's and the star's held us
Subliminally, sublime! Girl, you were always -mine.

And I was so, mesmerised I unlearn how to breathe
As we sank into one-subconscious
Into that one-subconscious, sea, sea of reflection

Girl, just you and me
Love, we held the star's and God held-us
Love, we held the stars and the star's held-us
Subliminally, sublime girl, you were always mine.

We sat by the river of contemplation.
And, girl, you did whisper to me.
Like a summer breeze
All the secrets of your world to me,
And I was so mesmerised.
I unlearned how to breathe.
I unlearned all the reasons for being.
Being alone and afraid.

Yeah, we sat by the river of contemplation.
And slowly, we sank into one subconscious
Into that one subconscious sea
Sea of reflection?

And, girl, you did whisper to me.
Like a summer breeze
All the secrets of your world to me,
We held the stars, and God in turn held us.
Love, we held the stars, and the stars held us.
Subliminally, sublime! Girl - you were always mine.

Oh, yeah, I unlearned all the reasons for being.
Being alone and afraid
I felt my anger and hate transform into love.
I felt the summer's burn in my blood.
Burning with the knowledge of our love
As we sank into one subconscious
Into that one subconscious sea
Sea of reflection?

Oh, yeah, I unlearned all the reasons for being.
Being alone and afraid
And, girl, you did whisper to me.
Like a summer breeze
All the secrets of your world to me,
And I was so mesmerised.
I unlearn how to breathe.
As we sank into one subconscious
Into that one subconscious sea
Sea of reflection?

Girl, just you and me.
We held the stars, and God in turn held us.
Love, we held the stars, and the stars held us.
Subliminally, sublime! Girl - you were always mine.
