the break of dawn is upon us, wake up!
the sun is rising finally the warmth has come
let's ride the boat of life where ever it may take us
the east, the west, up north, down south
fire up that engine, roll up the mast, hurry!
our hope is that it will be a blast
our wind swept face hides the salt water tears
happiness is what we seek and what we wish
all of us in search of paradise, the Eden in our minds
only to find out by most that it is a fly that we can't catch
it was gone when we raise our hands
it had left, vanished from our eyes
let's hope for a new tomorrow with no dark clouds above
it should be easy when we put our faith in God
the road will have no patchworks nor potholes
the ocean won't be angry and tumultuous
the sea will be peaceful and calm
happiness and joy at last...

when you run to catch a fly
you will certainly lose
their wings are clocks' hands
winning all the time
the flowing water is back to sea
the beach is getting bald
the corals are showing
with their spikes, alas
the rain had subsided
i smell the faint sweet grass
a new beginning comes
the sun's rays are out at last
after the clouds had cried
a new sky on the horizon breaks
there's that colorful rainbow
a new day had just opened up for you...
