Shawn Colvin - Orion In The Sky lyrics

S. Colvin - L. Klein 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 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 k**ing 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 Is it too much to ask in a lifetime For just one shot at happiness Do you just have to laugh at the right lines Until you come face to face With the looking gla** To be reckoned with the sins of our time 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
