In this desert land
I know some rain must fall
See where we began
We've come so far
On this harbor shore
We hear the ocean call
In our minds at war
We have so far to go

Shine with all the untold
Hold the light given unto you
Find the love to unfold
In this broken world we choose

In unending storms
We search for space to breathe
How our hearts are worn
We've come so far
In this desert
How we blossom and we cease
Tell your story now
We have so much to know

Shine with all the untold
Hold the light given unto you
Find the love to unfold
In this broken world...
Shine with all the untold
Hold the light given unto you
Find the love to unfold
In this broken world we choose
In this broken world we choose

Only one quibble with this pretty, sensitive song.

"In this broken world we choose"

Well, we don't choose this world. Do we?

There is no other world. Is there?

And so, we have no other choice, that we know of, than "this world"...


if it was "In this broken world we chose" you would be correct. "Choose" means something entirely different.
This must be Vienna Tang week at RP.
