From the recording Love is the Kingdom - Download
I would to love, love to you, I would to love, love to you
I’m gonna leave all this baggage behind, walk down the road where golden light shines,
Shake the deputies tracking my moves to reset the dials to start something new
Gonna saddle my horse and mosey along to sing a new anthem to start a new song
Forget the sorry, shout out with joy, find a new home that time don’t destroy
I would to love, love to you, I would to love, love to you
It’s funny when you’ve seen everything that a garden grows in a dreamlike spring
The curtain rises on the second act, maybe Scotty Fitzgerald will make it back
Is it the time of life or the time of day that drives me down this strange Highway?
To the starting point of the healing heart that wants a new chance to make a new start
I would to love, love to you, I would to love, love to you
If you see wreckage by the side of the road, you’ll know where I managed to dump the load
Of the 18-wheeler on cruise control where I lost control and I lost my soul
Well, I found a path and made a choice to walk that path and find my voice
To do the things I need to do to find the passage through to you
I would to love, love to you, I would to love, love to you
Lyrics
Oh, homeward bound is where I want to be, just you and me,
Don’t make a sound, try not to raise the dead, let them sleep instead,
While we talk until small hours of the dawn
And we allow all our sorrows to be gone,
And you stare into my eyes like a fawn in the moonlight
Now hold me close put your arms around me, here’s where I want to be
The room is whirling around me like a raging stream feels like I’m in a dream
You’ve taken me to where I’ve seldom been
You have broken all the stone so deep within
You’ve freed my mind from iron chains and set me free again
A butterfly tattoo is etched into my thoughts I think I’ve been caught
As a willing prisoner in a blessed jail guarded by a dog with a wagging tail
You have begun to show your sacred soul to me
Slowly with grace and so gradually
There is deep sorrow and ecstasy I see within your eyes
When I am with you, I feel renewed I’ve been a stranger passing through
A weird hypnotic trance can there really be a chance to be renewed
Long ago a wild filly came to me
But I tried too hard to make her stay with me
She ran away across the grasslands to the desert far away
Can I ever heal your aching heart and dry your tears?
I don’t want to hear your history, now it’s just you and me
It’s been hard to find the words I want to say
But for me the only truth is you today
If I can my heart and yours
from today will be entwined
