Lyrics

There's a secret that never dies Like a dance of hidden meanings that we never apprehend

There is a perpetual secret, enduring like a dance of concealed meanings that elude our understanding.

There are questions just as old as time And the answers that come never quite make amends

Existence poses ancient questions, and the answers that emerge never fully reconcile or make amends.

Even so when you look at time You can get a subtle feeling of the way it ought to be

Observing time can evoke a subtle sense of how things should be, despite the challenges and uncertainties.

Take a good look at your own real life And you will see if you want what you've gotten to be

Examining one's own real life reveals whether the attained state aligns with personal desires.

It's a hope a sign a measure of quiet rapture of love and what might come after

Hope, a sign, and a quiet sense of joy symbolize love and the potential of what might follow.

It's letting go and letting no answer be an answer

Letting go and accepting the absence of answers can itself be a meaningful response.
