Prism, Original song by Matt Worsham

Prism
© 2009 Matt Worsham

verse
Watching children play, playing at games of grownup fancy,
No thoughts beyond today or of other people's prophesies fulfilled.
Time's a flickering candle that sparkles glinting off a mirror
Throwing shades and images, but never all there is to see.

verse
If I were a philosopher, with words behind my love and
Thoughts behind my words would you lend to me a sympathetic ear?
Time's a beam of light that splits refracted through a prism
Showing everything that's been and all that will never be again.

verse
Girl with thoughts behind your words and heart behind your thoughts, oh could you
Bend your thoughts to listen to my words?
Time's a ray of sun that gently filters through a window
Giving warmth and light to all who gather in its glow.

verse
If I were a philosopher, with words behind my love and
Thoughts behind my words would you lend to me a sympathetic ear?
Time's a beam of light that splits refracted through a prism
Showing everything that's been and all that will never be again.

Half verse
Watching children play, playing at games of grownup fancy,
No thoughts beyond today or of other people's prophesies fulfilled.
