[ Featuring Maggie O'Connor ]
I stand below it:
A deep cloudless sky
Where once we stood
And then happened to fly--
We held out the quick diamond-
Blade to the dark
That ended its reign
With yet but a spark;
That fell away clean
-the quietest star--
Lighting our way
To be where we are...
And we just happened to fly
And we just happened to fly
And we just happened to fly
And we just happened to fly
I listen out now
Where the mountain is still
That echoed our voices
When only a hill;
When time could run backward
And forward the same
As rivers slipped free
Of their shape and their name
And rocked us together
When we waded deep
And carried us on
To a dream beyond sleep...
And we just happened to fly
And we just happened to fly
And we just happened to fly
And we just happened to fly
The memory serving us well
Will define
The way that the heart
Will speak to the mind--
It stands on the road
In front of us now
-the past leading on
With what it allows
Of tomorrow and all
That tomorrows may bring
Up from the well
Where we gathered to sing
And we just happened to fly
And we just happened to fly
And we just happened to fly
And we just happened to fly
