Harry Chapin Legends Of The Lost And Found
We are the lovers
We are bound to one another
By a bond that is invisible
Yet stronger still than time
And we're locked into the motion
That moves beneath the ocean
Rolling toward the future
That makes pain the only crime
Now I know you are the answer
You're the damsel and the dancer
The angel with the devil eyes
That knows about the beat
You remove the masks and faces
And you see the shadowed places
That only witches look for
In the cradle of the heat
Have you heard of the
Legend of the Lost and Found?
It tells of a world turnin' upside down
When all the kings have become the clowns
The beggars are crowned
The Legend of the Lost and Found
So I become the reacher
More the pilgrim than the preacher
The savage's been ravaged
By the visions of the smoke
As I'm peeling back the layers
To the passions of my prayers
I have seen the ramparts
Where the molten waters broke
Your heart's a sacred kingdom
That has colonized my soul
My past's the shattered fragment
That somehow you made whole
Today's your gift to fondle
Your offering to feel
Tomorrow is the promise
That somehow you've made real
Have you heard of the
Legend of the Lost and Found?
It tells of a world turnin' upside down
When all the kings have become the clowns
The beggars are crowned
The Legend of the Lost and Found
So l'll sing you every silly, sad
And happy song I know
And you'll open every part of you
That you've got left to show
And I'll pour myself around you
Like the sunshine drowns the field
And in the golden softness we will yield
And in the golden softness we will yield
