You sit on the other side of my balcony.
Each morning I greet you,
And you greet me.
You witness me change and evolve.
Each morning I greet you,
Rays of sun awaken me between your boughs.
You witness me change and evolve.
I think of those who lived here before.
Rays of sun awaken me between your boughs.
I rise with the strength that you give me.
I think of those who lived here before.
How many times have you given this blessing?
I rise with the strength that you give me.
And you greet me.
I think of those who lived here before.
I smile at you, from my side of the window.
