animation

Lyrics

when i was young i had thoughts of a kind that still linger, entwined with realities reasoning, i'd sit on the hill side and look out far yonder, imagine i'd easily fly away, to where? i don't know, but the imagery caught by my quick imagination would lift me, my spirit to conquer a fall, well now let me tell you the simplest of stories, we've all been through this moment, and really we've all been through this birth, all praise this glorious chance of life, all praise this wonderous feeling too, all praise this time we all go through, this pain, this light, we bare so fast, rebirth at last, and i wanted to be by my wife, as she'd laboured and given, the child a life, she the purest soul, so i wanted to be by her side, for the very first time i said, for the full and simple reason, well i wanted it, well yes i did, as a mother and father of innocence, gladly helping a child to this world, there was more than relief on our minds, it was like touching moments in history, not just for a memory, with the help of those dear people, who could have thought for a better reason of just wanting to be there, who could have thought for a better, reason of just wanting to be there, who could have thought for a better reason of just wanting to be there, for the full and simple reason, well i wanted it, wanted it, wanted to be there, out in a whispering of time, can a mother and child love right away, mother and father as their right accept a reason, as the child's eyes that dream on and dream a life away, so the moment i thought about release of life that comes on, and how hopefully wise we become with each passing day, i wondered at this divine "animation of life", as the moment her eyes opened wide i could see it was her first day, was her first sound, time had stood still, brought my knees to the ground, the moment i saw the look in her eyes, i knew i was captured by an angel in disguise, and as i sit on that green covered hill long ago, the memory of a deeper love inside me flows, oh - it comes and it passes through you, oh - it comes and it passes through you, tell me things that our fore fathers have tried, i'll tell you there's nothing in life to touch the birth of a child, i want these words to linger on and on for i was there beside my loved one, oh tell me there is nothing like seeing the birth of a child, so tell me the thought, the memory lingers so
