The Beekeeper
I Can Only Smile
Despite the plagues
Despite the war
Despite the mystery
Of what we’re for
Despite old age
Despite mischance
I can only smile
Since you asked me to dance
For as we dance I hear you cry
At all the sorrows passing by
But as you cry you also sing
And soon the winter calls the spring
I Can Only Smile
Despite the plagues
Despite the war
Despite the mystery
Of what we’re for
Despite old age
Despite mischance
I can only smile
Since you asked me to dance
For as we dance I hear you cry
At all the sorrows passing by
But as you cry you also sing
And soon the winter calls the spring
Here I may
Sit each day
Watch the play
God leads the way
I take my place
No more to say
As the beekeeper tends to his garden
His garden is voice to the sky
As the skykeeper tends to his garden
He becomes the cloud passing by
