Lyrics

And when I thought
My flame was out
You entered in
I look around
I feel the same as before
I'm on the ground
I'm dreaming away, but you know
I would trade all of
My daydreams for
Some wings
A sparrow sings
The thrill was gone
But like the summer
The spring
Will bring the dawn
And I'll be singing your song
For a wondrous new change is
Taking me up to heaven
Your sweet love -
Brighter than light -
Streaking like a starship -
Your sweet love -
Brightens the night -
Gleaming down on our ship
Your sweet love -
Making me realize
That heaven is right
Here in your eyes
I look around
It's not the same as before
I'm on the ground
But now I'm singing your song
For this wondrous new change
Is taking me up to heaven
CHORUS:
(Instrumental and Voice)
And when I thought
My flame was out
You entered in
I thank the stars
But you know as often
I thank the things you are
And all I offer
Just longs for that wondrous
New change
That's taking me up to heaven
CHORUS:
CHORUS:
I found my lucky star
Was gleaming nightly
Your love in starlight
Screaming 'round the bend
