There are moments I have known
And moments I have wasted
Pleasures I have sought
And sometimes briefly tasted

Show me eternity
I said to the trees
Show me eternity
If you please

This is eternity
Was the instant reply
This is your eternity
Don't ask me why

Eternity is here
Eternity is now
Eternity is everywhere
Don't ask me how

Take a look at eternity
Photograph it with your eyes
You're living in eternity
This is your prize

I said thank-you I suppose
This is not the eternity I chose
I still need some new clothes
But that's a lovely white rose
