Lyrics
joseph
I've been asleep for so long
I can't remember when I wasn't dreaming
must be one of those the angels are keeping
sometimes life is so sad you really feel that it's yours
for the taking
joseph wandered in
that winter when I was waking
playing the piano in the painted sky we were laughing
he said you've been here before and so have I
those same blue chords playing a melody
joseph with your eyes of many colors
sometimes I really feel it will come true
everyone will take a slice
understand the sacrifice for what we do
those angels that are watching over me
are watching over you
the time that I spent there
was a gift I didn't know that I'd been given
but everything gets clearer
the farther you move away
