DREAM AWAY By Tom Jensen
I'm light as a bird
I'm free as a feather
Hmm...when I first wrote those words
Somehow they sounded better...
I like the early morning when it's just the birds and I
When the sun has just woken up
And shown his face up in the deep blue sky
And even those who say that there is nothing good that ever lasts
Can feel the weight being lifted as for at least one fleeting moment
it seems as though all their troubles have passed
While watching the birds sing
From above atop of their trees
Wondering why life couldn't be that simple
For all of us, for you and me
Oh...to live so free within a world with no restraints
To draw on an empty canvas with infinite colored paints
Then some peace of mind
We could easily find
While we take a breath at ease
Then we'd look at what we've done
In creating our own little masterpiece
This is how I meditate
In the black of night
When it's getting late
I dream away to another place
A place where
People speak in melody
Where I don't have to do
What everybody's telling me
Where we sing songs all day long
I know right where this place is found
Where we can fly
Even without wings
As we smell the flowers
That the smiling children bring
We could all live here
If only for five minutes
First draw this place inside your mind
And now picture yourself in it...
