Oasis
Contributed by Robert Lyons
I look back before Id grown a mane
Remember that song about a horse with no name
They walked through a desert looking at things
I had been blind, all I saw was the pain
Tears like rain poured on everything
A heart of gold stolen by a miner’s dream
My songs being drowned in the steady stream
A river’s course bent through my veins
Soul trembling in a vast expanse of rolling waves
Surging tides over rocks and things
The birds and plants never looked so strange
Lost in my own vastness, I went insane
Then waters calmed, meaning came
Paradise found
I floated out to sea
Life’s water pouring out of me
