Breathless

(Latimer/Bardens/Ward)
She is my first love
Graceful in all her ways
Folding the hillside
Turning the sky from night into day
She won't fail to take my breath away


So soft this silence
She brings before the dawn
A time of twilight
When all the world waits to be reborn


Nobody knows her name
No one knows how she came to be here at all
Giving her loving
Hoping to everyone


Old as the hills
Young just like the rising sun over fields
That lie away beneath her feet
Ev'ry time we meet
She takes my breath away

(Latimer/Bardens/Ward)
Out of the mist rising
Ten thousand navajo braves
Shining like golden eagles in flight
Climbing high on the plains


Born of the Earth set free
To run away with the sun
So free to sing in tune with the world
Gladly dance for the rain


So many moons have flown
Now all your ghosts dance the long shadows
War cries that died on your lips
Echo above the plains

(Latimer/Bardens)
High rise blocks out the gloom
The pavement sticks like glue
You're getting nowhere
As you ride on a wing and a prayer
You're crying out loud
A face lost in the crowd
A voice no-one can hear
You'll get by on a wing and a prayer
So let it be
Let the breeze carry you to the sea
Let the wind take you where it will go

You'd better believe it, lay me where
(Love is everywhere, risin' me found and out)
And you can feel it you're halfway there
(Feels like you're gonna drown)
Just another lovesong ain't reachin' out no one's there
(Ain't no big thing)
Once you got the feelin', make you wanna sing
Just hold on to a wing and a prayer

Just a little homegrown, lights be
(Lots of smoke in the air)
Take it or leave it, it comes all for free
(You'll slowly slip away)
Just another love song ain't no big thing
(All senses prevail)
Once you get the feelin', makes you wanna sing
You'll fly home on a wing and a prayer So let it be
Let the breeze carry you to the sea
Let the wind take you where it will go

(Now you wonder how why)
You better believe it, love is everywhere
You can feel it, you're halfway there
Just another love song, ain't no big thing
(You can fly everywhere)
Once you got the feelin', makes you wanna sing
If you trust to a wing and a prayer So let it be
Let the breeze carry you to the sea
Let the wind take you where it will go

Just another love song, ain't no big thing
Once you got the feelin', make you wanna sing
Just another homegrown, there's lots of things
Take it or leave it, it comes all for free
If you trust to a wing and a prayer

You better believe it, love is everywhere
You can feel it, you're halfway there
Just another love song, ain't no big thing
Once you got the feelin', make you wanna sing
If you trust to a wing and a prayer

(Latimer/Bardens)
There's a road that I must go
There are short cuts that I know
But I know that we'll make it eventually
On a starlight ride


There's a fire down below
(that remains in me)
When the chilly winds will blow
(it will comfort me)
But as long as we let all our feelings show
It will never die


Feel the magic in the air
(On a summer night)
See the road ahead is clear
(Not a soul in sight) Let's take every moment and drink it down
Like a mellow wine


In the slipstream of the night
(I hear music play)
Though its road is crystal bright
(Seems so far away)
And it leads us from here to forevermore
On a starlight ride
