Unfinished Life

It's an unfinished life That I find lies before me An open-ended dream And I don't want to wake I've crossed so many rivers In search of crystal fountains I've found the truest paths Always lead through mountains I've seen water on the sky And fire burning on the lake Chorus: You said to me I cannot make you happy Like a wounded bird You must find the strength to fly Time can paint the tree tops With colours of the rainbow But you cannot find the end No matter how you try It's a journey with my soul That I am taking One that only goes From the cradle to the grave Going 'round in circles Like painted dancing horses Up and down we ride On the wooden courses And light from a lover's eyes Is all that I can save Chorus So I'll take the day and run Out across the open fields Where the grass grows high And the shadows fall Where my eyes can see All the colours in the air So quiet that the wind Whistles in my hair And takes the rising dust And carries it away Chorus
