I dream that me and you
Will go up on our roof
In the evening
To get a better view
We watch the sunset in the yard while
Im watching all the cars drive
Left and right
Making wrong turns at the light
And sometimes getting tickets
But getting back onto the road
And as the stars climb
The lattice of the sky
We know that its our wide world thats turning
And we think of how our little lives
Measure up to Time
With a moon thats been for ages
Spinning in the pages
Of dust and space
And reflections of the light
Overwhelmed I am
Sitting on my sleeping bag
But in the quiet you look at me and sing
You were born to be here
You were born to say
What nobody will say
If you dont
You will long to see clearly
To have it in your hands
But its far too big a plan
For you to hold
Will go up on our roof
In the evening
To get a better view
We watch the sunset in the yard while
Im watching all the cars drive
Left and right
Making wrong turns at the light
And sometimes getting tickets
But getting back onto the road
And as the stars climb
The lattice of the sky
We know that its our wide world thats turning
And we think of how our little lives
Measure up to Time
With a moon thats been for ages
Spinning in the pages
Of dust and space
And reflections of the light
Overwhelmed I am
Sitting on my sleeping bag
But in the quiet you look at me and sing
You were born to be here
You were born to say
What nobody will say
If you dont
You will long to see clearly
To have it in your hands
But its far too big a plan
For you to hold
So lets go up on the roof
Only me and you
And in the quiet we will ask God what to do
