body & soul

take me to the open spaces
take me to your heart
take me by the hand to show me magic i missed out
take me to the music
take me to the start
take me as you find me and let that be enough

take me through your own landscape
show me the world with your eyes
let me walk the paths in your shoes
so that i can understand why
i want to understand why

take me to the pot of gold
take me to your home
take me to the place you lost when you didn’t know
take me on the merry-go-round
take me nowhere fast
take me to a place of change where nothing ever lasts

take me over the rainbow
to never-never land
take me in your arms and hold me if you can
take me to a foreign culture
take me to a cave
take me to the top of a passion-fruit tree and help me down again.

take me through your own landscape
show me the world with your eyes
let me walk the paths in your shoes
so that i can understand why
i want to understand why

come on, soul
take me
come on, soul
take me

take me to the coral kingdoms
take me to the canopy roof
take me through the concrete jungle of my red-tinged youth
take me to the spirit
take me to the end
take me as you leave me to walk alone again

take me through your own landscape
show me the world with your eyes
let me walk the paths in your shoes
so that i can understand why
understand
