You came to me with fire inside
   Your movements and your pride
   And asking to be rescued from
   The pain you had become
  
   I tore apart the prison and I hid you in my hand
   In the blue light of Christmas-time Santa Claus was kind
  
   I wonder if you'll ever grow
   Oh far enough to throw
   Away the lies of no and yes
   And love my quietness
  
   Or will you only freeze and frown and lose what you have found?
   In the white light of Easter seas'n will you live again?
  
   Today the coin is in the air
   And we are here and there
   And where and when have caught us in
   The web of violence
  
   I pray to all the world as one that day will bring the sun
   In the scarlet light of Valentine's our paper hearts are blind.
