(Verse 1)
How could I forget such a revelation
To love without fear, to learn without question
How could I regret the meant occasions
I must begin this day again
(Chorus)
Freedom and reason shine through
Paddle upon the clouds on one's own canoe
(Post Chorus)
How could I
(Verse 2)
Humility, take charge of me
Drown me in truth's modest waters
Loosen your grip identity
Free me from an ego's falter
(Chorus)
Freedom and reason shine through
(Bridge)
Love too often is only a dream
If I am harsh and unkind to myself
So I share these attitudes with you
Must I try? How could I?
(Chorus)
Freedom and reason shine through
Paddle upon the clouds on one's own canoe
(Bridge)
Love's too often only a dream
If I am harsh and unkind to myself
So I share these attitudes with you
For in this spewing cavern of pride
How could I!
