Mosaic (from Highways)
Category : Kate's Lyrics
MOSAIC (Gaffney)
We're on the way to Santa Cruz we ain't got much to lose
But everything that's standing in our way
Driving down seventeen you got the wheel resting on your knee
And your guitar it's playing in your hands
You sang a song down from your soul as I watched to ocean roll
Right out in front of us
And I smiled softly to myself and placed my heart up on your shelf
And listened while you drove
Chorus:
And you showed me what in means to be free
Cause you know how to just let it be alright....
Now I know what it means to be free
I met you the other day while you were playing on the stage
I thought you were someone that I know
Long ago when we were kids we'd walk the beach and then we'd sit
Underneath the stars at the cove
He showed me what music was I thought I could never love
Another one quite like him
But I awoke today just to Þnd your love inscribed on my arm
And I wonder how far away you've gone
Chorus
I walked in that smoky bar and something changed inside my heart
I heard the music playing from afar
At first I could not see how the sound was making me
Feel so high and light
But I bought a beer and settled in to yesterday's topless den
And pushed you through the night
And I stayed around for you to play a song for me while I wait
For you to take me home
