Do not turn away so wholly,
Do not turn away from me.
Do not hide your sunlit face,
Do not hide your sunlit face.
Think of the shadows that will be,
Do not turn away so wholly,
Do not turn away from me.
Do not hide your sunlit face,
Do not hide your sunlit face.
Think of the shadows that will be,
Do not turn away so wholly,
Do not turn away from me.
While we dwell within this world,
Words will rise, and tales unfurl.
While we dwell within this world,
Words will rise, and tales unfurl.
If you take offense at every word,
And slow to forgive, it is heard,
Do not let life be spent this way,
Do not let life be spent this way.
Grant a little space to live,
Do not turn away so wholly,
Do not turn away from me.
We are but vessels of the earth,
You, a soul with playful mirth.
We are but vessels of the earth,
You, a soul with playful mirth.
Knowing you, we dared to tease,
Tell me what troubles you, if you please.
If you claim us as your own,
If you claim us as your own,
Grant us also a little ease,
Do not turn away so wholly,
Do not turn away from me.
Do not hide your sunlit face,
Do not hide your sunlit face.
Think of the shadows that will be,
Do not turn away so wholly,
Do not turn away from me.
