My Land Is a Good Land Lyrics


Take me to the night I'm tippin'
Topsy-turvy turnin' upside down
Hold me tight and whisper what you wish for
There is no one here aroundYou may sing-song me sweet smiles
Regardless of the city's careless frown
Come watch the no colors fade blazin'
Into petal sprays of violets of dawnIn blindful wonderment's enchantment
You can lift my wings softly to flight
Your eyes are like swift fingers
Reachin' out into the pockets of my nightWhirling twirlin' puppy warm
Before the flashing cloaks of darkness gone
Come see the no colors fade blazin'
Into petal sprays of violets of dawn
So prince charming I'll be on two white steeds
To bring you dappled diamond crowns
And climb your tower sleepin' beauty
'Fore you ever know I've left the groundYou can wear a Cinderella
Snow White, Alice Wonderlanded gown

Come watch the no colors fade blazin'
Into petal sprays of violets of dawnBut if I seem to wander off in dreamlike
Looks please let me settle slowly
It's only me just starin out at you
A seemin' stranger, speakin' holyNo I don't mean to wake you up
It's only loneliness just comin on
So let the no colors fade blazin'
Into petal sprays of violets of dawn
Like shadows burstin' into mist
Behind the echoes of this nonsense song
It's just a chase in whisperin trail of secret steps
Oh see them laughin' onThere's magic in the sleepiness
Of wakin' to a childish sounding yawn
Come watch the no colors fade blazin'
Into petal sprays of violets of dawn
