And she walks down to the shore
Up to the edge of the waves
The distance to the sunset
Is matched only by her gaze
And no strings bind her
That would keep her from going where she wants
And I hope peace finds her
But I fear there is nowhere she belongs
And her home is like the dust from God's fingers
Cast everywhere, but never stopping to linger
All empires crumble to the ground
But men still seek to build them tall
There all built on foundations unsound
She knows as she watches them fall
But they still laugh at her
Cause she has nothing in their eyes
But it doesn't matter
Because she sees through truth's disguise
And her home is like the dust from God's fingers
Cast everywhere, but never stopping to linger
It's hard to love this girl
Who's happy to pass me by
But I want to see her unfurl
The love that she carries inside
And I want her to spread her wings
That she's so afraid to unfurl
I want her to laugh and sing
And spread her love throughout the whole wide world
And her love is like the dust from God's fingers
Cast everywhere but never stopping to linger
