Tip Toe

                                                On a tightrope

                                             Across the Universe

                                   Catch a falling star with your heart

                                   Follow the silvery light to the moon

                                    Slide down to earth on a rainbow

                                        Row your boat to the shore

                                               The music calls

                                                   You home
