Kirtana - Deathbed Song lyrics

Artist: Kirtana

album: Falling Awake


If I had the chance to live life over,
I would go more slowly - that's for sure.
I wouldn't put up such a fight
To have my way or prove I'm right
Or overlay the world with my agenda.
I would open each day like a present,
Tender toward what ever came my way -
Every texture - joy or pain -
Searing sun or healing rain,
For I have seen the masks of my Beloved.
I would not be so restless,
So eager to mess with
The nectar of what is
That I over-think the kiss
Or turn my mouth away.
I would not take a single breath for granted.
And I would spend much more time on my knees.
For once you've strewn the ashes of
The bodies of the ones you love,
You learn something about what really matters.
And I know that love is worth the wounding
And that this dance is too brief to sit through.
So even though my heart would break,
What a deep, exquisite ache.
I would always be a fool for love.
