"Seek the Deepest Blue of the Sky"


when you notice your plant is thin

and is reaching toward the light


you know it needs to be closer

to the sunshine


so you see to it

the plant gets enough light


like a plant, you too

need water and light, so


if you feel unhappy and alone

you must be brave


and spread your wings

like the mighty eagle


and seek the deepest blue of the sky

haw, seek the deepest blue of the sky


but you have to do it yourself

no one is going to do it for you


once you have gone there

you may be surprised, someone


one day will cross your path

and become a partner for life


together you will fly high,

soaring together, smiling.
