[00:22.35]Is there something I can offer you[00:29.13]As a token of my gratitude[00:35.61]Every gesture seems so small[00:41.79]Still I'd like to try[00:48.90]I could bring you flowers[00:53.94]Flowers would be sweet[01:00.18]I could find your favorite kind[01:02.76]And lay them at your feet[01:12.18]But flowers fade and die . . .[01:18.54]I would rather be the ground[01:25.65]In which a flower's grown[01:27.39]Through which your feet must pass[01:33.33]From which all seeds are sown[01:44.37]If I could give you anything[01:50.82]I would be the ground[01:56.73]Is there some place that you'd like to see[02:03.57]Some corner of the galaxy[02:06.30]Name it and I'll take you there[02:17.10]For I have learned to fly[02:25.44]I could show you azure skies[02:29.49]Or multi-colored orbs of light[02:35.70]Glittering before your eyes[02:37.89]Like jewels in the night:[02:48.90]And they would make you sigh[02:54.12]But I would rather be the space[03:01.59]In which our lives are hung[03:03.12]The silent, unseen thread[03:13.83]Through which these stars are strung[03:20.28]If I could take you anywhere[03:26.79]I would be the sky[04:27.45]If I could only find a way[04:31.44]To tell you what my heart would say[04:37.89]I could finally sing this love[04:44.13]And it would make you cry[04:50.49]But I have never found the words[04:56.76]That can speak this grace[05:02.94]That is why I must rely[05:05.64]On a gestureless embrace[05:15.81]Even so I try[05:21.99]But I would rather be the love[05:28.83]From which attempts arise[05:37.62]The origin of poetry[05:40.68]And of these tears that flood my eyes[05:47.85]If I could tell you anything[05:54.81]I would be the love[06:01.08]If I could give you anything[06:07.50]If I could take you anywhere[06:13.53]I would be the ground[06:17.07]I would be the sky[06:20.25]I would be the love[06:27.66]I am the ground[06:29.82]I am the sky[06:36.00]I am the love
