Breathe

Breathe, breathe in the airDon't be afraid to careLeave, but don't leave meLook around and choose your own groundFor long you'll live and high you'll flyAnd smiles you'll give and tears you'll cryAnd all you touch and all you seeIs all your life will ever beRun rabbit runDig that hole, forget the sunAnd when at last the work is doneDon't sit down it's time to dig another oneFor long you'll live and high you'll flyBut only if you ride the tideAnd balanced on the biggest waveYou race towards an early graveHome, home againI like to be here when I canWhen I come home cold and tiredIt's good to warm my bones beside the fireFar away across the fieldThe tolling of the iron bellCalls the faithful to their kneesTo hear the softly spoken magic spells.
