Lyrics

I never meant you any harm
Said the lightning to the tree
I only saw what I was seeking
What I was made to see
I cannot change
What I don't understand
And I was never taught
To look again

You know I never meant to hurt you
Said the blizzard to the deer
I only reveled in my power
Did not recognize your fear
I cannot change
What I don't understand
And I was never taught
To look again

I never meant to hurt you
Said the husband to the wife
I only see that I am destined
To relive my father's life
Look again
Look again
Look again ...
