Magenta Sky
Let me be a light
shimmering downtown
On the surface of skyscrapers
Catching your eye
So that for a moment
You look up and see me as I am.
Let me be a warm wind
In the middle of February
Chasing down my youth
Across endless Alberta prairie
Help me remember the way I was
Before I left that town
Let me be the stillness
In the moments before I wake
When I’m wandering the streets of Hollywood
Confident, wild and dreaming
Of a time when I was free
Let me be that water
Deep, royal blue
A heavy heart rippling out
To all the dreamers
Powerful and silent
Let me be like dusk and dawn
Somewhere in between
A brilliant sun, a reckless moon
Just enough starlight
To make me feel magical
Let me be the morning sky
On the perfect day
With a big cup of coffee
Sitting across from somebody
Who changed by life
Let me see.
Let me listen.
Let me love.
