this is the song
that tingles my spine
this is the song
that wets my eyes
this is the song
i sing with delight
this is the song
i feel with all my might
this is the song
that wraps me up tight
this is the song
i want you to feel tonight

8888888888888888888

we drive past the city
and she is shrouded in clouds
and we're moving
at sixty miles per hour
on a winding grey highway

i want to stop
right. now.
and stare at your clouds
i wonder how you feel,
when you're surounded by white

white is the color of god
its the brilliance of his love
it makes me sing
and makes me cry
it frees me from myself.

********************

i sit on my couch
and wonder
where are you tonight
all is not right
when you're not in sight
and i can't know how you feel tonight

do you pick at yourself
like the pain will not melt
are you running away from the hurt
are you high as a kite
are you lying in fright
are you curled up into a ball

when i talk to you on the telephone
and i say that i feel allright
what i mean is you can
you will 
and you can
make it through
this thick night

the world is turning
your mind is learning
you can't leave yourself behind

i want to give you
my peace of mind
i want to give you
the love you can find
i want to give you
a piece of my life

*******************

i see the steel
i see the concrete
i see it all 
rising out of my backyard
it climbs to the sky
shining back to me

ra warming my heart
ra warming my face

how do you feel
people moving all around
their thoughts must confuse you
i confuse myself
up stairs
and down shafts
absorbed by life
that has no impact

does ra warm you
does ra make you shine?

can you see yourself
shining above the clouds?
you inspire people
without saying a word
but who inspires you?
