               Distant times  in distant lands
             There's a crisis     in the outer world
            In life so delicate      and strange

           Worthless money    changing hands
             In the sky the smoke trails curl
         Understanding seldom comes in range

     Changing them to what?          I wonder
       Some Winnipeg boys          are Cypress bound
         We stumble through   familiar scenes

           As in the dust  a jet plane thunders
        I hope they live to touch home ground
              Never thinking   what it means

   Carries every     feeling into      blue
   I hope we live to touch if just once more
   In this cluttered landscape  to be  loved

   I miss you        like I miss the   flowers in bloom
   I need you        like the river    needs the shore
   I need you        like I need the   stars above
