Or is he still ascending  
But if he’s all you say  
Would he fly from heaven  
To this world again

What ever else  
He will fall  
Depend on this

We’re coming down to the ground  
There’s no better place to go  
We’ve got snow up on the mountains  
We’ve got rivers down below

We’re coming down to the ground  
To hear the birds sing in the trees  
And the land will be looked after  
We send the seeds out in the breeze

It takes all my will  
And then suddenly, last summer
