The key won't turn in the lock
It's the wrong key
Or something is wrong with the gates
Or the house has gone and moved away
Or your heart is gone and melted away
What do you do when the liquid runs out?
When the glass breaks and the water starts spilling out
Is there a way to put the water back?
Is there a way to fix the glass?
Can the liquid gold of light
Fill the water all back up
And melt the glass back together

If a rose falls in a stream
And floats away away from me
Is there a way to catch up
Is there a way to bring it back?
The rose floats along the water
The water is clear and cold

If a firefly can glow and light up the night
If a peaceful breeze can feel so right
If snow can fall and taste like snow
If the moon can rise and flowers grow
If whales can sing and the sea can listen
If the sun can shine and dewdrops glisten
If rain can fall upon the trees
If chimes can tinkle in the breeze
If strawberries can taste like the skies above
If there can be such a thing as love
If there's the seasons spring and fall
Can the world really be that bad at all

The gates won't open
The house is gone away
The kingdom is having trouble
The kingdom is falling apart
The fountains and the statues are still there
But is there anyone there
The gardens are beautiful and empty

Sleeping in the quiet
The keys are missing
The air hums like the flowing of a river
The air is quiet
