Arthur Lee Land Song That You Sing lyrics

Shadows rolled into the night,
Shooting stars and trailing light
I found you singing over crescent bay,
A snapshot taken in a souls eye way,

Tide washed low, The full moon grew,
The night revealed the light inside of you,
You saw our past, Egypt, Greece & Cherokee,
Often common and poor, Sometimes royalty

The song that you sing that you sang that you sung,
Skated through my heart, Through my mind onto my tongue,
The love that you gave that I got on this run filters,
Through these pores like rays from the sun

Falling stars light ignited the dawn,

Ruby red grapefruit colored morn,
I found you crying into emerald bay,
The blues melted into greens and sailed away

Barefoot, Red dirt, Slammin' screen doors,
Birthday cakes and heartaches and creakin' wooden floors,
The day turns the hours into weeks into years,
Undone by happiness, Revealed by these tears

The song that you sing that you sang that you sung,
Skated through my heart, Through my mind onto my tongue,
The love that you gave that I got on this run filters,
Through these pores like rays from the sun
