hand in hand

[verse 1]  sometimes two hands find each other no one can explain no clock to count down no map to follow each night we go for walks hand in hand, smile and talk laugh under the moon moments pass too soon  [verse 2]   sometimes the planets parade dance across the sky shoulder to shoulder, one and two step together, three and four each night I hold your feet massage the miles away whisper in the dark  rest in a holy ark  [chorus] your hand on my face your heart in my hands you see through smoke my heart shines the way a million miles disappear our fingers cross the stars we make our own parade the stars fall in line    [verse 3]  sometimes we hold each other feelings I can't explain no clock to keep count no rules to follow each night we stroll outside hand in hand, side by side laugh like smiling moon moments pass too soon  [verse 4]   sometimes the planets shine line across the sky shoulder to shoulder, one and two step togeth...

Home

[verse 1]  shingles on the roof keeps out the storms a place that's dry a place that's warm on those days we hide under blanket on those days I'll be your shelter  [verse 2] when snow falls, wind freezes grass I'll play a gentle song rhythms warm your feet melodies raise your eyes when the sun rises again  I'll clear the driveway lift heavy ice and snow clear the road for you    [chorus 1]  home is when you smile the place where sun shines home is when you cry place to put the shield down home is when you sleep place to close your eyes home is where we are the place we are true    [verse 3] every morning coffee brews sweet scent fills the house  every day I pray I stand next to you every day I walk until my head is gray every wish I make count stars with you    [verse 4] when snow falls, wind freezes grass I'll play a gentle song rhythms warm your feet melodies raise your eyes when the sun rises again  I'll clear the driveway l...

Touch

[verse 1]  When the sun goes down the moon reflects the sun your fingers weave between mine the breeze rustles the leaves I see the moon in your eyes I see the sun in your eyes   [chorus 1]  laughter sweeps across the grass lifts my feet above the clouds melody traces the smiles and lights the silver moon rhythms echo for miles like an old jazz tune  rhythms echo for miles like an old jazz tune    [verse 2] when you make a funny face I ache with laughter until the trumpet sounds like a butterfly flutter I see the moon dancing with the sun until dawn I see the moon dancing with the sun until dawn   [chorus 2]  laughter sweeps across the star lifts my head over mars swings from coltrane to miles a beat that feels wild laughter sweeps across the star lifts my head over mars swings from coltrane to miles a beat that feels wild   [verse 3] when you walk up the steps I follow the rhythm my heart beats like drums to count out the hymns when you walk...

Each morning

[verse 1] When the sun tickles my eyes I turn my head to see gold necklace lays quietly shimmering in the morning light when the sun tickles your cheek the blanket pushes back the light   [verse 2]  you wish each morning was cloudy the minute hand slow and lazy rain singing on the roof wash away the scars of work a few more minutes a few more minutes   [chorus 1]  each morning I count your lashes trace the road that led to this place listen to each breath you take listen to the dreams that may listen to each breath you take listen to the dreams that may [verse 3] When the sun tickles my eyes I turn my head to seegold necklace lays quietly shimmering in the morning light when the sun tickles your cheek the blanket pushes back the light   [verse 4]  you wish each morning was cloudy the minute hand slow and lazy rain singing on the roof wash away the scars of work a few more minutes a few more minutes  [chorus 2]  each morning I count your lashes tra...

dreams

Some nights I close my eyes pull the blankets to my neck listen to the wind howling under the weight of blankets   a mystery appears in dreams slides under the covers her cold hand on my hand cold feet wrap all over my heart pumps fast my skin gets hot   in the garden of dreams my heart melts ice clears a field of snow roses pedals glow moonlight reveals a valley covered with smiling steam  

happy birthday

the day you took your first breath my world expanded I couldn't see the edges of the galaxy my arms too short to grasp the sky in that moment, the universe slept the meaning of joy revealed itself   there were no roads to guide me no recipe for smiles your first smile surprise me gave me courage to walk strength to get up each day   looking back, I see the rainbow winding over the mountains through dense forests and over waterfalls   happiness is forging a path the birth of new possibilities   

resilient

[verse 1] In the middle of the day or dead of night my hands will catch the pieces I will find every fragment and shard slowly put your heart together again I will sow the seeds of happiness wait for the sun and see pedals shine [verse 2]  when thorns pierce your hands you still get up and fight with fists no wall is too high to scale no steel too tough to pierce even when every muscle aches even when the road looks endless [chorus 1]  you put on the armor you wrap your fingers you kick down the locks you brace for impact I will stand with you put you together again   no rose is as bright no thorn is as sharp as the rose I see full of thunder and lightning [verse 3] In the middle of the day or dead of night I'll warm your hands I'll chase away the cold you can wrap your arms around me my heart will radiate warmth Spring will cover the field [verse 4]  when thorns pierce your hands I'll wrap it with silk when your shoulders are tight I'll massage away knots when our f...
