TAKE MY HAND
Take my hand and run away with me
To another dimension in time,
My utopia in Shangri-la
A simpler life to find.
Take my hand and come with me
Where life is no more than play,
Where death and sorrow we’ll never see
Where war is never waged.
Take my hand and come with me
To my secret vanishing point,
Hostility and prejudice cease to be
All souls live as one.
Take my hand and come with me
This troubled world leave behind,
You’ll never fear the air you breathe
Restore peace to a battered mind.
We shall wallow the day upon the grass
Beneath a sun-kissed, blue sky,
Creating silly images in the clouds
As the breeze softly sends them by.
Barefoot we’ll walk wherever we go
Your hand I will take in mine,
In the air distant music of a carousel
Accompanies our dance amidst the pines.
I will take you where the waters flow
Deep within the forest green,
Our fantasies prevailing as we stroll
To the valley where dreams are weaved.
You can be the twinkling of a star
In the meadow soaring with fireflies,
You can sing a tune with the man in the moon
You can become the morning sunrise.
Take my hand and run away with me
To a land of my own creation,
A place where hatred cannot breed
A world that can never be threatened.
