When the light uncovers you
I will sing a morning song
Like a sparrow in an oak tree
Till the dreams say so long
You will turn around to see me
Lying eager next to you
I’ll color your silver skies blue
As the scent of spring arrives
I will dance you through the green
Guiding every new footstep
Till you recall our routine
You will slow me down and hold me
Closer till your grip is true
You’ll color my silver skies blue
Oh the rush of love with its tender breeze
Firming up the roots, cooling off the leaves
We clutch deeper in the soil
We grow taller towards the blue
Oh the rush of love with its tender breeze
Firming up the roots, cooling off the leaves
We clutch deeper in the soil
We grow taller towards the blue
When the noise is all that's there in your poor embattled mind
I will touch you on the heart, so your body you can find
and you'll turn around the see me, lying eager next to you
I'll color you silver skies blue (3X)
