Ballad of You and Me and Pooneil

If you were a bird and you lived very high, You'd lean on the wind when the breeze came by, You'd say to the wind as it took you away, That's where I wanted to go today" And I do know that I need to have you around Love like a mountain springtime, flashing through the rivers of my mind; it's what I feel for you. You and me go walking south And we see all the world around us, The colors blind my eyes and my mind to all but you, And I do know that I need to have you around, And I do, I do know that I need to have you around. I have a house where I can go When there's too many people around me; I can sit and watch all the people Down below goin' by me; Halfway down the stair is a stair Where I sit and think about you and me; But I wonder will the sun still see all the people goin' by. Will the moon still hang in the sky when I die, When I die, when I'm high, when I die? If you were a cloud and you sailed up there, You'd sail on water as blue as air, You'd see me here in the fields and say, "Doesn't the sky look green today?"
