Take Me Away

Beyond the edge of velvet night, A peaceful world is bathed in light. Above the stone and blinding street, A quiet sanctuary feels so sweet. Oh, take me where the rivers flow, To find the peace I used to know. Underneath the open skies, Where every troubled spirit flies. Oh, take me where the rivers flow, To find the peace I used to know. I reach beyond the silver haze, To leave behind these dreary days. Upon a falling star I pray, To find a golden, brighter day. Where heavy shadows softly fade, A tranquil paradise is made. Through every storm and winding road, We lay aside the heavy load. Oh, take me where the rivers flow, To find the peace I used to know. Underneath the open skies, Where every troubled spirit flies. Oh, take me where the rivers flow, To find the peace I used to know. I follow where the wanderers go, Through valleys green and hills of snow. A gentle breeze begins to sing, Of all the joy the dawn can bring. We walk together hand in hand, Across this timeless, healing land.
