Shawn Colvin - Orion In The Sky Lyrics

Send "Orion In The Sky" ringtone to your cell

Maybe somewhere in the southern hemisphere

There could be room for all this love

Where they've saved a place for innocence

And what is still mysterious

And their dreaming time

An' they're dreaming time

Because we've broken down the wilderness

And we've blackened up the skies

And we cry 'cause we've got no vision left

While the smoke gets in our eyes

And there's no more time

And the dream is dying

But i love you baby

And i know you and i

Can find a way to heaven

Just like orion in the sky

He's the long lost hero

He's the guardian of your son

But can he protect us baby

From all the sad things we've done

Now i know there's no sense in hiding

And we can't escape this war

And i have made my peace with dying

Down here on this killing floor

In a world gone blind

Where there's no more time

But i love you baby

And i know by and by

We gonna find a way to heaven

Just like orion in the sky

He can walk upon the water

He can shine for everyone

But can he protect us baby

From all the sad things we've done

Now is it too much to ask in a lifetime

For just one shot at happiness

Or do you just have to laugh at the right lines

Until you come face to face with the looking glass

To be reckoned with the sins of our time?

'cause i love you baby

I can see you and i

As we fly away together

Up to orion in the sky

He's the last of the fallen angels

He's the light of the southern cross

Maybe he can take us baby

Back to the paradise we've lost

So i'll see you darlin'

Now fly baby fly

Down across the fiji islands

To where the seven sisters cry

Gather all your dreams and take them

Somewhere so far out of reach

Follow the sword of the hunter baby

And meet me on the beach

We are forever tied

Still on the run

To the medicine man

For all the sad sad things we've done
