Painter

If I was a tree, if I was another flower, if I was the sea,

If I was another river, if I was the sun, if I was the moonlit mountain

If I was a bird, if I was the dinosaur, if I was the whale,

If I was another dolphin, If I wasn't me,

what would there be left of loving?

Strange was the day of dawn & I would have seen it all,

All times would have passed me by

and I heard the blackbirds singing...

songs from the deep of dawn, Mothers of Earth and Sea

what would I possibly be... without love

Now, were not that far away, soon enough we ride them starships

See how we work the play, time will tell... to touch the stargates

Eagerly we send our dreams, into the big black void

Flesh and bone, now lift us up, from the dusty dreams,

A billion hearts, a song within

Running home, running high, send your heart, touch the sky

Hurry home, hurry by, to your home in the sky...

Free from the bad old ways, soon set for the Silver Mountains

See how the children play, closer to what's coming soon

Eagerly they drop their dreams into the big black void

Flesh and bone hold them back, like the rusty chains,

Coming strong... but loosing late

Running home, running high, send your heart, to the sky

Hurry home, hurry by, to your home, in the sky...

Calling home, calling love, send your dreams, back to me

Running home, running high, knowing love, cover me

We put no trust in the goverment

All got it wrong, no one heaven sent

Papermen pin down the elements

Try to control the environment

Running high, running free

Another you, another me

Out of sleep, out of touch

All too much, all too much

Look at the world from a different pace

You run the show from a dirrerent space

Numbers and words, not saving grace

Gently the years in your Fathers face

Running high, running free

Another you, another me

Out of sleep, out of touch

All too much, all too much

Running home, running high send your heart to the sky

Hurry home, hurry by, to your home in the sky...

Calling home, calling love, send your dreams back to me

Running home, running high, knowing love will cover me...
