WHERE ELSE WOULD IT GO
THE SKY IS ALL IT SEEMED TO EVER KNOW
CAUGHT UP IN THE DAY
QUIETLY SHINES THE DAY AWAY
MAYBE WE'LL CAST ANOTHER SHADOW
AND MEASURE THE MINUTES BY THE HOURS
BUILD A BRIDGE WITH THE AIR
AND BREATHE AWAY THE BONDS THAT HOLD US THERE
CHORUS:
KEEP THE DAY AWAKE, I DON'T WANT IT TO END
BY THE TIME ORION RISES, WE'LL BE ON THE MOVE AGAIN
SEND A LETTER TO TOMORROW AND LET IT SAY
THAT OFF THE OCEAN BLOWS INSPIRATION WITH EVERY WARM SUNRAY
CAN'T HELP BUT SQUINT MY EYES
THE PURPOSE ONLY SEEMS TO MAGNIFY
I FEEL IT IN MY BONES
I SEE IT AND IT'S BLOWING DOWN THE ROAD
MAYBE WE'LL RUN ALONG THE HILLTOPS
AND IN THE TALL GREEN GRASS WE'LL DROP
AT THE CLOUDS WE'LL STARE
AND SEE WHAT PICTURES THE CLOUDS MIGHT BARE
BRIDGE:
SUNRAY, SUNRAY
AND WE'LL GIVE TO ALL THE PEOPLE JUST THE SAME
SUNRAY
AND WE WILL NEVER EVER GOING TO CHANGE.
