Shepherd's Song

The sun is up for me But I know a beauty that shines it out I can hardly see When she is up letting her veil down But it could ever be I'm just a shepherd hiding from the hounds She's a fantasy With flowers and bows, pretty coats and a silver crown Every day goes by The sun and the moon making out in the sky We keep each other warm Snuggling up in the dark Mr. Sheep and I I join my favorite dream She sings me lullaby's all through the night And wakes me with a kiss Sweet taste of apples and wild strawberries I'm in love with her majesty So whatcha gonna do? I wanna build the dream for two So what's it gonna be? I'm jumpin' up and down, but she can't see I think you got a chance Just move on over and ask her to dance! I got silly feet and a lousy beat so how on earth could I make her want me I think it's gonna rain today And I'm here on one hill and she's on the other The clouds are in my way As the sky opens up Letting her veil down Covering my queen I'm still just a shepherd, so why should I bother The valley in between Gets deeper and deeper as time passes by Gonna love her til I die So why don't I Just make like a prince and give it a try So what's it gonna be? I could slingshot myself like a bumblebee So watcha gonna do? Use Mr. Sheep as a parachute One the count of three I'm off to claim my fantasy In my best clothes buttoned up with a rose I'm on my way to make you love me I'll be your man In your castle made of sand Watch your head, my love, I'm coming over Just so that I can hold your hand
