Dear John

Dear John
 Do you remember when
 Our mothers met
 Mama told me that they lept
 Is that a sign for us
 Or a sign for them
 When unborn babies testify
 Carried between the earth and sky
 Sons of eternity in time
 We were born
 Born of spirit
 Born of water
 Born of blood
 Born
 Child of freedom
 Child of promise
 Child of God
 Do you remember what
 Our fathers spoke
 Silence broke down on our knees
 There was power in their prayer
 Remember what they said
 They said we are the children of their dreams
 Words of acceptance split the sky
 Visions of heaven filled our eyes
 [Chorus x2]
 And do you remember how
 It made us feel
 To be traded for a foolish lie
 I was the song that danced
 You were the song that healed
 Neither song could satisfy
 Wisdom was fighting for her life
 We, we were the children of our time
