John & Mary & The Valkyries Triumph
If I saw the world today
Meandering down the apple way
If I looked and said to you
I'm blinded by the things you do
I could count the days go by
Lavender of silver skies
With your eyes I dream above
Tell me life is full of love
If I saw the world like you
I'd be free and I'd be true
Looking for my life today
The saddest times are all away
Find the apple of my eye
Tell me why, oh why, oh why
That I love you,
Oh, that I love you,
That I love you,
That I love you.
If I saw the sky above
Tired of dreams I'm embattled of
Finding time to sing and say
I'll do it again, again that way
And I'd say to you
Give me the truth again
Find me a love above
Be in my mind best friend
Oh yes, and then if I couldn't say to you
The things I'd like to, like to do
Then what's the reason for us now
The singing, dancing all around?
Yes, and if I told you everything
I'd buy you all those diamond things
Eyes a-sparkling, tried and true
If I could make love with you
And then if we played inside all day
Swings around the apple way
Time and time again I'd say
Come out with me, I'll play it all away
I could say to you,
Time is true and it means so true
Life, it goes, it goes around
and around and around and around and around
But I, I would say to you
That I'd be scared
Of losing you
And all alone and down I'd go
I'd chase you, oh I'd chase you so
Given me a chance today
To prove myself and sail away
And then I will be your lover fair
Taming knells and idylls there
Trying to tell who's striking through
Shining like a cypress hue
Soon, to sing a song today
And then we could just get away
Dreaming true, being there,
Reelin'
