The Car in a Maze
with Daniel
I believe the world is like a maze
When you make a wrong turn
It's like making a mistake in a maze
Cars make a lot of mistakes
Angels ride along with their little xylophones
God stays where he is
Cars can get bumped into leaves
Angels sleep for the whole day
God stays where he is
The moon hates to go in front of the sun
The sun hates to go in front of the moon
I don't like to get lost in the maze you have to walk in
Angels like to get lost in God - God is never lost
I like to get lost in my house
