When I lost you I cried
I was for ever alone
In the dark I slept
Snored all pain and tears
Sorrow and hate was born
My womb ached to deliver
How can I forget
When the universe shimmered
All creatures were awake
My shadow was green
I walked close enough
I observed but I was blind
I heard you sing and I smiled
I let you hold my hands
I did not know the routine
And I trusted your lead
Again and Again
When my heart was found Again
I always responded to you
I gave you what I owned
Unto you I surrendered
Upon thee I depended
New seasons were born
My complexion changed
So was my life and dreams
Like a bird I sang
My life was amazing
The sea was shimmering
I sang the morning glory
I smiled when I held you
Like kites we flew
Higher and higher we fled
I was born again
Rejuvenation was ceased
When my heart was found Again
When my heart was found Again
My life was never the same
I shared my joy with you
My sweets were ours
Even today I feel you
Deeply I still feel you
In my sleep I still find you
In my heart you reside
In my brain you survive
I have lost my mind
I will not cry rather smile
In your arms I will perish
Now I know but confused
When my heart was found Again
