lyrics

It's like holding on to dreams as they evaporate
When morning comes and pulls me back to you
Your smile washes over me
Eyes overflowing sunlit glee

And when we rise among the hills, the breeze is warm with you
The shining fields elysian below
Skipping together, dream to dream
Breath-giving unreality

Currents and forces
Lifting us skyward
Sunshine enfolds us
Gliding and diving

Down into another dream as it evaporates
Singing, melting forward, time drains into
Whirlpools in the deep-swirling sea
New colors spinning endlessly

Currents and forces
We can't swim away from
Waves shape a shoreline
Sand giving way

Currents and forces
Time blurring past us
Holding the edges
Joy found in letting go
