I am the light of day in the dark of night
I was the star that burned in your eyes
Once I was the darkness of a room
I opened the door to sadness
I dream of burning whatever I seek
I was the sand that swept into your eyes
I was the wind that swept dust from the volcano
I was a drop of rain that quenched a boy's thirst
