One brief moment in time
One touch of an angel's hand
One sparkle in your eyes
One moment I understand:
That patience is a virtue
But more of a lifeline
That I was blind to see that
I was being polished to shine.
One leaf falls from its branch
One moment it's rejected from its tree
One home it loses and fall it takes and yet
One leaf is picked up and loved by me
I too had to fall to be picked up
I had to be rejected to see
That I must lose what I love
To find what loves me
