Can you?

Can you catch a rainbow, watch it glisten in your hand?
Can you touch the deep blue sky, spread over the land?
Can you hold a snowflake, 'ere it melts against your skin?
Come and walk with me a while, and feel the change begin...

Can you see the air, as it supports the eagle's wing?
Can you grasp the faintest breath of birdsong, as they sing?
Can you hear the notes refracted, in the summer sky?
Come and walk with me a while, and I will show you why...

Can you taste the sounds of silence, in the evening air?
Can you smell the scent of roses, when the earth is bare?
Can you feel the pain of earth, beneath the farmers plough?
Come and walk with me a while, and I will show you how...

It's hard to push your senses as far as they might go
Without a guide to lead the way, they may never know.
Would you let me help you? You don't have to be alone.
Come and give your heart to me, and I'll give it a home...

I will share my life with you; together we will fly;
I will give you all I have until the day I die.
You can see the world like this, and share these things with me
Can you give your heart to me? For you will set me free...
