Lyrics

I have seen the morning burning golden on the mountain in the skiesAching with the feeling of the freedom of an eagle when she fliesTurning on the world, the way she smiled upon my soul as I lay dyingHealing as the colors in the sunshine and the shadows of her eyesLoving her was easier than anything I’ll ever do againComing close togetherWith a feeling that I’d never known before in my timeShe ain’t ashamed to be a woman or afraid to be a friendI don’t know the answer to the easy way she opened every door in my mindBut dreaming was as easy as believing it was never gonna endLoving her was easier than anything I’ll ever do againWaking in the morning to the feeling of her fingers on my skinWiping out the traces of the people and the places that I”ve beenTeaching me that yesterday was something that I never thought of tryingTalking of tomorrow and the money, love and time we had to spend
