Souls on a Mortal High
The hills come alive in the Autumn mist
Ghostly in their grandeur
As the souls of the wood
God has kissed
Sing for the coming day
Dawn-lit children wake up
from their silent sleep
Dawn-lit children take up
all their hearts can keep
Dawn-lit children
make your dreams alive
Send your spirits free
The weary eyes of the children blink
and gaze at the waking flowers
As the sunlight climbs above the brink
of the lazy world below
Dawn-lit children play games
well beneath the sky
Dawn-lit children laughing
as the world goes by
Dawn-lit children
do you realize
You're Souls On A Mortal High
Do you remember when
the streets were lined with gold?
Do you remember how
the stories would unfold?
Songs of old
Echoes ring out through the evening sky
and shine across the waters<
back
The stillness whispers in your ears at night
to bring the children home
Dawn-lit children gaze up
watch the clouds go by
Dawn-lit children raise up
to the open sky
Dawn-lit children
can you realize
You're Souls On A Mortal High
Do you see the tracks in the snow
soon become one
then slowly fade away
Do you feel peace at night
the stars in the heavens
grant you a brand new life
...a new life
...a new life.
