stealing the moon from our own sky

We've seen this with the twinkle in the heart
Living in the past remorse and shame
steals the moon from our own sky;
puts a songbird in a cage.
Don't be so harsh, my friend
and let the moon shine. Let the bird sing.
I was afraid of fire all my life,
very much afraid of fire
until one day I saw him
gently turning a moist, hopeless dough
into a delicious bread.
