Verse 1:   Come with me take a trip   We walk softly in the clouds.   Over river rocks between misty mountains.   Smile at me and I'll smile back   And roll out that river raft   Push off from the shoreline   And deep blue green      Spin around and we drift   Over rocks and undercurrents   Past cedars and sunlight and memory   Waves of wind meet our bow   Now hardened and strong   Let the cool air push our way   With the tide we roll on.      (Bridge)   I dream of a day when I'll see your face   And I won't have to say goodbye   Maybe someday I'll see you again   And I won't have to wonder why.      (Chorus)   Long and winding facing West   Last summer was the best   Sands of time were at rest   You were holding me   These things I can't explain   In the early morning rain   Run with me, leaves fall   And I go on.      Verse 2:   A crescent shape of land   Will catch our bow   And our feet sink into the sand   Facing west light blue   Becomes white and blue   The color will turn darker   And darker still      Orange fire dips below   The horizon line   Paths of light stream out   Catch the corner of my eye   The air is chilled I am warm   The air blows cold at night   But my teeth don't chatter at all      (Bridge)      (Chorus)      Verse 3:   Sit beside me on a driftwood   On a driftwood chariot   And point out a formation of stars   I'm listening carefully   I'm listening carefully   And the moonlight stops   To touch the sea      I breathe out you breathe in   I look out and let the air   Escape slowly between my lips   For a moment I hear   The roaring of the river   Fading light on cedars   The shutting of a wooden door      (Bridge 2)   It's a place I?ve been before      (Chorus)      Verse 4:   I saw crackling embers   I saw crackling embers   Firelight has shown me what I couldn't see   Had I dreamed it had I seen it   Had I felt it did you mean it   Or was it all really all just make believe      Have you ever felt this way   Wish I was driving to yesterday   Past the index caf?   To milepost 36   Miss you I will   We grow farther and farther still   Think of a better way   Tell me a better way   I go on.
