about

Well, the clue is in the title, of course.

lyrics

I am the wine you poured when you needed cheering
I am the cup that you raised to your trembling lips
I am the comfort that speaks below peoples§ hearing
I bring you peace and love as a free-given gift.

I am the road you travel on while you're escaping
I am the steering wheel moving beneath your two hands
I bring relief from the troubles of your own making
I am the solid ground which helps you to stand.

I'm in the bubbles of hope¬ not the prickles of envy
I'm in the seesaws of love¬ not the fog of despair
I'm in the wildness of joy¬ not the madness of frenzy
I'm in the shining stars¬ not the spotlight glare.

I am the calm that comes when the storm is over
I am the freshness that comes when the rainshowers cease
I am the sunset gleam and the dawn's first glimmer
I have no limits or rules where I spread my peace.

I am the smile that comes between sleeping and waking
I am the strength that you find when the world falls apart
I am the friends that come round when your heart is breaking
I am the music that plays to the beat of your heart.

I make no guarantees and I make no bargains
Make no decisions about when to enter the game
Choose my time to arrive and bring my own comfort
Everyone knows me and calls me by their own name ....
