Gaia Wakes

[Verse 1] In the deep silence of the ground Something stirs beneath the stone Old as dust, but not yet bound The earth remembers her own Wind moves slow through hollow reeds Like a prayer across the plain From the dark where nothing sleeps Green is waking once again [Pre-Chorus] In the veins of rock, heat rises In the roots, a spark takes hold Every buried thing surprises Every broken heart turns whole [Chorus] Gaia wakes, Gaia wakes Feel her moving under our feet Gaia wakes, Gaia wakes Life returns through ash and seed (Oh, Gaia) Gaia wakes, Gaia wakes And the wide sky starts to breathe [Verse 2] The river runs with tired tears Still it sings its way to sea Carrying our thirst and years Back to where they used to be High peaks guard the burning blue Watching clouds in silver flight What has ended comes in due Back to her eternal light [Pre-Chorus] In the soil, the old names vanish In the dark, new leaves are born What we lost, she will not banish She will wear it as her dawn [Chorus] Gaia wakes, Gaia wakes Feel her moving under our feet Gaia wakes, Gaia wakes Life returns through ash and seed (Oh, Gaia) Gaia wakes, Gaia wakes And the wide sky starts to breathe [Bridge] No death is wasted here No fallen thing is gone It returns in root and rain It rises in the dawn (Back to the ground) (Back to the ground) [Final Chorus] Gaia wakes, Gaia wakes Call her name beneath the trees Gaia wakes, Gaia wakes Hands in dirt and hearts at ease (Oh, Gaia) Gaia wakes, Gaia wakes We are held where all begins Gaia wakes, Gaia wakes And the world comes back again
