You And Me

The old music rumbles in the street While the animals graze on the barren hill The dust is swirling in the air and the dogs are running to and fro looking for a safe place to go but the donkeys stood still grazing on the barren hill The wicked gust of the west, almost choke me to death, it kept spinning around looking for a place to rest but the good witch of the south force it back to where it comes from and I could finally land on the dry ground Come with me to the middle of the sea and let me show you what I see Come with me in a motor boat and survey the shore and discover what is hanging behind the door Listen carefully to the sonic boom and watch the wave rise at noon The cover is on the boat remove it before you start to float Drift with me to the other end of the sea And keep my company I wake up this morning with a tender heart And suddenly emerge from the dark and the benevolent sky above my head broke loose And fill the earth with showers of love The earth opens its thirsty gut and fill the universe with love and blessing from above The streets are lined with singing patrons singing melodious folk songs I watch you walk out of the crowd to show me what life is about Will you put your arms around me and dance with me, Will you walk with me across the floor and let me look at you once more Stretch your arms towards the crowd and absorb the energy before you walk through the door The forces are strong but you have the upper hand If I stumble would hold me up And if my feet are tired Would you lead me along? Let me hold your hand for you and me are going to compose a brand new song And everyone will sing along Just you and me, gazing at the clear blue sea
