Lyrics

If I was a tree
If I was another flower
If I was the sea
If I was another river
If I was the sun
If I was the moonlit mountain
If I was a bird
If I was the dinosaur
If I was the whale
If I was another dolphin
If I was a meal
What would there be left of life?
Each was the day of dawn and I would have seen it all
All days would pass me by and I'll
I heard the big birds singing songs from the deep
Of all mothers of earth and sea
What would I possibly be without you?
Now enough that far away
Soon enough we ride them starships
See how we work the play
Time will tell to touch the stargates
Eagerly we send our dreams to the big black void
Flesh and bone now lift us up from the dusty dreams
Baring hearts the sun within
Running home, running high
Send your heart, touch the sky
Hurry home, hurry by
To your home in the sky
Free from bad old ways
Soon set for the silver mountains
See how the children play
Closer to what's coming soon
Eagerly they drop their dreams to the big black void
Flesh and bone now hold them back like the rusty chains
Baring souls now turn to fade
Coming strong but losing light
Running home, running high
Send your heart to the sky
Hurry home, hurry by
To your home in the sky
Calling home, calling love
Send your dreams back to me
Running home, running high
Now alone, cry for me
We put no trust in the government
No, got it wrong, no one heaven sent
Paper men pin down the element
Try to control the environment
Running high, running free
Another you, another me
Out of fear, out of touch
All too much, all too much
Look at the world from a different place
To you
Read the years in your father's face
Running high, running free
Another year, another year
Out of sleep, out of touch
All you lost, all you did
Flee from the bad old ways
Sunset for the silver mountains
Running low, running high
Send your heart to the sky
Hurry home, hurry by
'Til you're home in the sky
Calling home, calling love
Send your dreams back to me
Running home, running high
Now in love cover me
Running home, running high
Send your dreams back to me
Running home, I'm running high
Running low, I'm running high
