How I long to be on the side of a mountain
Waiting for that artsy star to throw paint across the sky
And I hold my breath, till that last ray waves goodbye
Oh, and that feeling of beauty, keeps me warm and keeps me right
I have placed my heart in the hands of a woman
To have and hold along life's road until we reach the other side
Such a mystery that she would choose to say, forever
Oh, and that feeling of beauty, keeps me warm and keeps me right
Several years have passed since the whimsy of sixteen
Some of my dreams have wandered, while others stay close to me
A vision of a father's song, a little girl singing sweetly off key
Oh, and that feeling of beauty, keeps me warm and keeps me right
I walk along the lonely edge of unbelief
But tribal wars and social scores are strange quests for peace
Yet, that marble moon gives a reason for the tide
Oh, and that feeling of beauty, keeps me warm and keeps me right
