Lyrics
He plucks a flower from the bower of her hair
waves a hand vanishes into the air
walks down the road alone for a spell
drops his shoes into a wishing well
CH Let go the bird in your hand
She paints the mountains in his eyes
climbs a ladder to dance in his skies
Flies like an owl howling through his dreams
and the water rushes through New Orleans
CH
They stretch their arms out to the sun
Light the halo in their hearts
It has begun
Their fingers touch and transfer the spark
he said, "I can see you now,
even in the dark"
CH
