Can the wind rush through the leaves
can there be some evergreens
with their branches covered in snow
glinting in the sunlight glow
Can there be a wintertime
with soft deep snow reflecting bright
the cool crisp breath of winter air
snow castles and running and quiet lairs
Can there be a springtime
with quiet rain and misty mornings
Flowers and trees and dew in the grass
Smooth sunshine and the earth slowly warming
I want to run on top of a mountain
I want to dance beneath the waves
I want to drink grape snow slush
I want to explore rocky caves
I want to glide across the sky
I want to go on a rushing ride
Away to where the earth is still
where the quiet rain falls on the windowsills
where the floors are marble and the windows are glass
where the ancient seas of heavens past
are filled with the whales that sing their songs
and you just want to ride along
swim along in the deep down under
till you're taken away with wonder
the magic of the ocean's glow
the secrets of the seaside snow
a snowglobe world beneath the waves
a glassy castle of endless days
The seagulls fly into the night
the fireflies glow with their light
the moonlight glows upon the sea
the twinkling stars dance in the breeze
The wind blows gently across the ocean
the ripples dance out in the open
And I just want to be among
The rain and wind and air along
The boardwalk lit up at twilight time
Strung with lights along the lines
And rusty ladders that lead down to the sea
And you drop off into the waves and you feel so free
And you swim to the shore as the rain pours down
And you eat some fruit with no one around
And you find a map that's old and torn
That takes you to some ancient shores
Of an island that has been forgotten
With woods and sand and rocks untrodden
And canyons deeper than the earth
Over which fly the soaring birds
And dragons in their quiet calm
Troubling no one there's no alarm
And the candy canes grow along the banks
Of rivers winding down to the lakes
So deep and blue and shining in the sun
And in the old trees there is one
Ancient tree all winding and worn
Thick and smooth and soft and old
That holds the truth of ages past
Covered in moss it will always last
And the dew drops form on the grass and ferns
And the soil and mud is filled with worms
And the icicles drip from the branches and rocks
And the moonlight glows upon the raindrops
And the fireflies are like stars in the air at night
And the air it feels so good and right
And the oranges taste like the skies above
And in the morning you hear the quiet doves
And you sleep in the rain beneath the trees
And you hear the rain upon the leaves
And the pools of water so clear and cold
Are worth so much more than gold
And the waves they fall upon the shore
They will keep on going forevermore
Can we go back to when there was time
For breathing sleeping peace and quiet
For laughing running in the mud
For feeling the sunglow in your blood
Can we fly into the sky
And feel the tension wash away
Can we swim in the deep blue bay
Cool and soft I love you today
