Box Of Visions Lyrics

Tom Russell Box Of Visions

I give to you a box of visions
I give to you a jar of hearts
I'll give to you the gypsy's ear
To hear the sacred harp
I'll give to you a house of mirrors
A thousand eyes they belong to you
A labyrinth of wild roses
I know you'll find your own way through

Wait a while and you'll grow older
Never mind what the old/wise folks say
Just keep an angel on your shoulder
Never throw your dreams away
For they will save your life one day

A song is just a box of visions
you can's unlock it with a key
A message rolled up inside a bottle
And dropped into the stormy sea

A song is just a box of visions
A jar of hears and a gypsy's ear
A labyrinth of wild roses
A journey though the house of mirrors

Wait a while and you'll grow older
Never mind what the old/wise folks say
Just keep an angel on your shoulder
Never throw your dreams away
For they will save your life one day
