I'll walk along your way <br />In history down town <br />And in your thoughts stay <br />Always within reach of your gown <br /> <br />Nothing will upset me now <br />For you are singing your tune <br />Bringing your living room plough <br />And sowing into the dune <br /> <br />Many are the moons out there <br />Likewise the suns that are shining <br />Bring all the softness of your hair <br />Each silver thread and lining <br /> <br />I'll never see you stop dancing <br />You are so great in your song <br />Bringing about the circumstancing <br />Where each ones footstep belongs <br /> <br />Nothing you say can offend me <br />Because every word is quite true <br />Let there be back yards wonderful free <br />Singing their song just like you <br /> <br />Words on your shoulders are flying <br />Springing hopes high to the sky <br />Never again to be hopelessly trying <br />Because they reach what they ply <br /> <br />You brought your tides like new suns <br />Meeting every upset with a dance <br />Bringing your sexiness to sex-guns <br />And giving the ladies their change <br /> <br />Lifting up the hours and tame <br />You rise <br />The future is yours in your name <br />You rise <br />Profound is your orbit leaping wide <br />Words of your wisdom our guide <br />Every word with you isn’t just mere <br />You rise <br />Boat of each expectation now steer <br />You rise <br />You are my queen of the red cover <br />I'll be your Irish four leaved clover <br />You rise <br />You rise <br />You rise<br /><br />Peter S.
