She Stops To Take 5 Minutes

As she sighs along to the quiet Giving herself some time to breath She's hears a pleasant whisper It's her own enchanted voice you see Having some time to think now To her own sweet pleasant whispers As she let's the wave of still surround her Taking in the peace Shes a drifter and a dreamer And I know you do believe her When she tells you She caught the stars She's a drifter and a dreamer And I know she gets your fever When you see her Dancing in the dark She's soaked in flooded moments Times of gold, she hold these treasures As she let's the wave of still surround her Thoughts etched in her mind Her own enchanted voice is saying Never stop your dreaming please Sometimes it gets you through the day The world moves on regardless Shes a drifter and a dreamer And I know you do believe her When she tells you She caught the stars She's a drifter and a dreamer And I know she gets your fever When you see her Dancing in the dark These flooded moments Soak her skin You dive right in You dive right in As she stops to take 5 minutes To drift and be swept away The hazy morning sunrise Shines on her face.
