Bio

Lyrics

Reach out and touch the music, and Feel what’s in my song The words are full of meaning, won’t You come along
We’ll wonder with the melody, and sail Across the sky And some enchanted morning, we May even learn to fly
We will fly Fly We can fly Fly We will fly Fly Away
We’ll hear a new horizon then climb To catch a cloud We’ll leave our fears and troubles,all Our cares and woes on the ground
Soar high in sound and silence and Spin through space and time As we hover with the harmonies then We’ll swoop to ride the rhymes
To be free, sail along with the music We can be, sail along with the Sunshine Forever free, sail along with the Moonlight You and me and a dream and a song oh Now won’t you come along
It won’t be long until the tale is told We’ve started flight so hang on tight To me And if I lose my way with you We’ll turn around Touch the ground Listen for the sound
Reach out and catch the moment and Feel the beat of time As it pulses past us as we sail on the Currents of our minds
We can fly Sail along with the music We can fly Sail along with the Sunshine We can fly Sail along with the Moonlight
