My horizons are, rising up to see
I’m finding out just fine, who I am
I’m looking out of my own desert home
Checking all those creatures passing by

As the way back to your heart
Widens all the time
It’s that first soft light
Of the shy desert morning
That reminds my blood to come alive

Don’t take me downtown
With these worn out shoes
There’s no place for my bag
I’m heading out,
I don’t need no news
There ain’t no use for that where I’m going

As the way back to your heart
Widens all the time
It’s that first soft light
Of the shy desert morning
That reminds my blood to come alive
Don’t take me downtown

I’ve been away for too long
Don’t make my bed for me
Cause I’m seeing it through this time
In my own company
And as the way
Back to your heart
Well it widens all the time
It’s the first soft light
Of the shy desert morning
That reminds my blood to come alive

Don’t take me downtown

Shy desert morning
I can see you coming through
Your light’s gonna shine
And light the way to you
Shy desert morning
And I know you got something to say
I’ve been waiting all night
So come on and light up the way
Back to your heart
It widens all the time
It’s that first soft light
Of the shy desert morning
That reminds my blood to come alive
Don’t take me downtown

We just turned 23
It was the world versus you and me
We were both head over heels
Yeah you remember how that feels
We thought we would win somehow
We’re laughing at that now

The day it all fell apart
It felt like you were holding my hurting heart
We swore we’d try again
That was the beginning of the end

I wanna tell you that I’m different
All that time in love was well spent
You know we had to learn along the way
So we could look back and smile someday

And I could say I’m sorry
But that wouldn’t be true
I’d rather say I’m happier
And I know that you are too
If I’m honest, I’m overjoyed
Now I know who I am
This is my voice

I wanna tell you that I’m different
All that time with you was well spent
You know we had to learn along the way
So we could look back and smile someday

I wanna tell you that I’m different
Back then I couldn’t know what it meant
You know I had to learn along the way

I wanna tell you, I wanna tell you that I’m different
All that time with you was well spent
You know we had to learn along the way
So we could look back and smile someday

The sky is changing
From indigo into blue
And I am changing too
For the first and the last time

The earth is trembling
And I am trembling too
It makes me feel alive
It’s the only thing I know

There’s a winding road behind me
A straight path ahead
Will you come with me
To the water’s edge

We’ll sink into the shoreline
And slowly disappear
Into it all

As it always was
As it really is

There’s a wildfire behind me
An orchard ahead
Will you come with me
And taste all of it

We’ll turn into magpies
And fly on the fiery wind
Above it all
As it is

There’s a winding road behind me
A straight path ahead
Will you come with me
To the water’s edge
We’ll dance for forever
And slowly disappear
Into it all

As it always was
As it really is

Into it all
As it is

Have you seen the sun over the seas
All seven call for me
But she’s in the throes of love
And he’s a lonely lad

Have you walked the hills of a highland trail
All my friends are there
But she’s a comfortable girl
And he’s already found his chair
Still happiness waits

In the bridges connecting all the little towns across the world
In the streambeds that laugh when no one’s looking into their games
In the moonlight on its short and lovely journey to its tree top beds
In the fallen trunks, around the fields
You can find it there

Have you held the hand of a summer wind
I know it’ll guide you well
But she’s a busy girl
And he’s forgotten the sounds

Of the snow, and the rain
Of a cool river breeze and his home
Still happiness waits
Yes and happiness waits

In the bridges connecting all the little towns across the world
In the streambeds that laugh when no one’s looking into their games
In the moonlight on its short and lovely journey to its tree top beds
In the fallen trunks on the forest floor

Still happiness waits
Yes and happiness waits

In the bridges connecting all the little towns across the world
In the streambeds that laugh when no one’s looking into their games
In the moonlight on its short and lovely journey to its tree top beds

In the shimmering waves crashing on the shore
In the crisp cool air of the springtime stretch
Yes you can find it there
Yeah you can find it there

Have you held the hand of a summer wind?

There’s a shadow on the wall
Of an angel come to call
And remind me of what I’ve always known

She whispers in my ear
The words I can barely hear
But the meaning I can feel in my bones

There’s a peace just outside my window
There’s a war raging at my door

There’s a light

If I close my eyes
And go deep inside
I can see

There’s a light
