Stirring

Take in the air I breathe and paint it all over the street Breathe the air that I breathe And leave the substance running in the street Lift your courage above the sky And walk with me before you say the final goodbye The journey is long, but the path is clear I will hold your hands and reminiscence with you when I get there The jubilant crowd is waiting for you And I only have one pair of shoes But I will be there to see you through I stood in the middle of the street To fill my lungs with fresh air But I heard heavy footsteps walking behind me and my heart began to fear And before I knew what was going on The multitude was walking beside me They spread out on either side of the street singing a rhythmical song one group on the left and another on my right They held my right hand and left hand tight As I progress towards the middle of the sky We sang until we got to the square And the crowd had doubled when we got there But the fox was waiting underneath the tree To pronounce the final decree But I continue to wave my hand in the sky and held my hopes way up high I can still feel the stirring in my feet As I watched the substance running in the street.
