Flor de Loto
Bunbury
Lotus Flower
A farewell was never so brief
I never believed it was final
I never loved anyone so much in my life
I never called a stranger my family
I never had faith in my philosophy
I never had a guru or guide
I never despised a lost cause
I will never deny they are my favorites
This is my lotus flower and I was its shadow
This is my lotus flower,
My world will not clear up
So much wandering to not keep
Never anything.
A flame never remains lit
I never endured its heat, never again, never more than a day
I never endured being an invaded soul
Until I saw before me for whom I would die
This is my lotus flower and I was its shadow
This is my lotus flower,
My world will not clear up
So much wandering to not keep
Never anything.
Will you rectify
The lines of my hands?
Who will randomly scatter
The coffee grounds?
And what did the crystal ball say
When it started to roll?
What more could I need?
Do I have anything to lose?

Easy to seek (not easy to find)
Easy to seek (not easy to find)

Lotus flower
Easy to seek (not easy to find)
Easy to seek (not easy to find)
Will you rectify
The lines of my hands?
Who will randomly scatter
The coffee grounds?
And what did the crystal ball say
When it started to roll?
What more could I need?
Do I have anything to lose?
I can't lose anything.
