About the song
The song is about creativity, the idea of ideas coming from beyond the self, from an infinite void. It's also about the artist/muse relationship and the bliss of imagination.
Lyrics
Softly, softly, fingers seeking
Keys within a shifting sea
Somewhere they will never find me
A secret wrapped 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
A 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
Keys within a shifting sea
Somewhere they will never find me
A secret wrapped 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
A 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
