Serene

many trails we travel meander and wave

it’s a long, long journey from the cradle to the grave

and it can be a little rough –

on that bumpy road to where you’re trying to get to

It’s like sliding along a highway in the sky 

and the moon is smiling down on the shadows of the night

and you’re haunted by the thought –

of wondering if you’ll ever learn to love again

(chorus) do you remember when love was like a cool mountain stream 

and every day was like living in a dream?

do you remember when everything was totally serene? 

(do you remember when everything was totally serene?)

and even if you journey for miles in the dark 

just to wind up dying of a broken heart   

it will make sense in the end to the one you dedicate your heart to

always follow love wherever it may lead, only love can make you believe 

in a spiritual existence of being here to love one another

it’ll make you wonder – what is blowing in the warm summer breeze?

is there something magic in the trees?

can you make this mad world stop and find a way to let go of everything?  

you can fly away forever if you open up your wings 

to find a piece of heaven just hold on to your dreams

and find an island you can hide on where everything is totally serene 

(island you can hide on where everything is totally serene)

and when you’ve seen as far as the eyes can see 

and dreamed of much more than one dreamer can dream

make one more wish upon a star to once again be totally serene (chorus)
