Bruce Cockburn - Messenger Wind lyrics

In a horse-powered sleigh at the top of the town Sun coming up paints the snow all around with rose light In front of the house where I'm supposed to be born I don't think I'm ready to walk through that door just yet To be one more voice in the human choir Rising like smoke from the mystical fire of the heart The wind that blows through everything Sweeps out the halls of my heart when I sing to you It carries the moon and the stars and the rain Carries the seagulls and carries my shame away Spins me around, stops me running away From all the things I've been waiting to say But don't Here Is bigger than you can imagine Now Is forever Sun coming up paints the snow all around Rose on the roofs and the trees and the ground And the stream In my dream Messenger wind swooping out of the sky Lights each tiny speck in my human kaleidoscope With hope
