Footsteps Through The Sky

I dreamt I was swimming there
in a silver stream somewhere ,
against the flow ,
I don’t know why ,
the other fish just passed me by .

I looked around me as I swam
and thought about being a man ,
then I looked away up high
and I saw your footsteps through the sky .

I’m following your footsteps through the sky
and little clouds are stepping stones
where the rivers have run dry
and all the fish they don’t know why ,
all they see up above are your footsteps through the sky .

I was washed up on a sandy shore ‘
the angry sea began to roar
then out of the corner of my eye
I saw your footsteps through the sky .

I landed on a mountain top
and as my breathing almost stopped
I heard you say its time to fly
and I followed your footsteps through the sky .

Until the storms have passed by
and when all of the seas have run dry ,

There will come a time for you and I
to walk forever through the sky .

I’m following your footsteps through the sky
and little clouds are stepping stones
where the rivers have run dry
and all the fish they don’t know why ,
all they see up above are your footsteps through the sky .
