I feel the stirring of my soul

       I have a race to run

       A race that I must win, you see

       To where all life begun

       With one almighty surge I strive

       to make it to the fore

       Swimming strongly for my life

       Until I swim no more

       I have safely reached my goal

       I feel the warmth around me

       And knowing love has made me whole

       I realised my destiny

       Too soon-it's time for me to go

       It's so much harder to return

       Why did I now have to grow?

       there so much to learn?

       Now I am pushing with the tide

       One final push it seems.

       Then I am lying in my Mothers arms

       The answer to her dreams
