Softly, softly
Fingers seeking
Keys within a shifting sea
Somewhere they will never find me
Sacred writ in ivory
And I am white and black and moving
Inside, outside, in between
Beauty found when no one's listening
All this meant for only me
Here where I am loved
Here where I am needed
Here where I am beautiful
And I am every sound and silence
Secret born in ivory
Somewhere they will never find me
Somewhere they will never see
Here where I am loved
Here where I am needed
Here where I am beautiful
I am stillness forged in motion
Courage carved in ivory
