![]() . If the wind could lift me up If the spirits could make me charmed I'd circle the world with saving grace So no one would be harmed. If the sun could melt my fears If the stars could make me shine I'd radiate away all disease So the ailing would be fine. If the moon could light my way If the sea could become land I'd walk across the world to-night And place crystals of ocean in your hand. . ![]() . Chris Barker ~~~ |
