I Will Bloom

Lyrics

I learned the art of keeping still When every door was sealed with frost But now I feel a restless rising thrill Recalls the things I thought I'd lost

Tilting toward the light Something in me burns bright I will bloom before I'm through I will bloom before I'm through

The seed I buried in my doubt Sends green shoots through the thawing clay The patient earth finds out what spring's about And counts the lengthening of days

Tilting toward the light Something in me burns bright I will bloom before I'm through I will bloom before I'm through

I have waited far too long Something stirs beneath my breathing I am not who I was before And I slowly close the door

Tilting toward the light Something in me burns bright I will bloom before I'm through I will bloom before I'm through

I will bloom before I'm through I will bloom before I'm through
