lyrics

Light as a feather take to the air / Light as a feather floating
Light as a feather floating on air / I’ll take you there
I’ll take you there / I’ll go with you
Down by the banks of green / like we used to do
Down in the shadows of the banks below
If your heart says yes / I won’t say no / I’ll take you there

Places you’ve forgotten you know / lost in the shuffle of long ago
Sun, moon, seashells, wind in your hair / I’ll take you there / floating on air / take you there
I’ll take you there / I’ll go with you
Dream the original dream / like we used to do
Under the moonlight / on a night so rare
Just say the word / I’ll take you there / I’ll take you there

Chorus:
Just say the word, if your heart says yes I won’t say no
I’ll take you there
Down in the shadows of the banks, of the banks below
When you’re ready to go
I’ll take you there, up in the air
Down low, slow, not quick
Down in the shadows so slow

Let me know when you’re ready to go / You been a long time thinking
The wind in the sails is billowing slow / and the sun is sinking
I’ll take you home / I’ll take you there
with the tree frogs singing Love’s Old Sweet Song / in the cool green air
It could be tragic / it could be Hell
But you never know / it might turn out well / I’ll take you there

So many places pull at your heart but / you could never afford the fare
Rip those picture postcards apart / I’ll take you there / Floating on air
Take you along / Where music is praying
The words to the song / are all we’re saying
Scrub our hearts / ‘til the love shines through
when you’re ready to go / I’ll go with you / I’ll take you there

Chorus:

Where it begins / in the Port of the Skies
Recognition gleams / from a stranger’s eyes
Light as a feather / Floating on air
Will o’ the wind / I’ll take you there, take you there

Don’t know nothing, which is more than a few / who know too much and none of it true
Seen it all and they still don’t care / I’ll take you there
I’ll take you there / in the breath of a song
Banish despair for a moment or two if not for long
The solution to hate is a personal thing / a melody played on just one string
but it takes you there

Chorus:
Just say the word, if your heart says yes I won’t say no, no
I’ll take you there, down in the shadows of the banks, of the banks below
When you’re ready to go
While the wind,
While the wind is billowing, billowing slow, I’ll take you there
If your heart says yes I won’t say no, I’ll take you there
