Oh Mother Nature, How wise you are
It's your alter I kneel upon
There are some things we can not choose
We find the beauty in what we lose
Yes we find the beauty in what we lose
Always chasing that pot of gold
Can you buy and sell the sky
A commodity to own
You find the things you claim will soon own you
We find the beauty in what we lose
Yes we find the beauty in what we lose
Oh you gotta give it away, give it away
Oh you gotta give it away, give it away
All the sand on all the shores
What is mine and what is yours
The tighter our hands hold, more grains fall through
We find the beauty in what we lose
Yes we find the beauty in what we lose
So comes the doctor into the room
To tell the family their moments are few
When time drips by like faucets loose
We find the beauty in what we lose
Yes we find the beauty in what we lose
Oh you gotta give it away, give it away
Oh you gotta give it away, give it away
Oh you gotta give it away, give it away
Oh you gotta give it away, give it away
