Dar Williams - You Will Ride With Me Tonight lyrics

Have you called before your time? Rest your head against me I'm a friend to travelers Hold me tight, my wings are strong Wrap your arms around me It's a long way through the tunnel to the light Speeding through the fields of flowers Silver skies with distant showers My sister brought them All the seeds in spring were sown How the tendriled vines have grown So full in autumn May I say, you seem too strong Loose your silver hair cause It's a long way through the tunnel to the light Fates are poised above the strings They know the span of life and wings You are not of them See the life these travelers chose Highway lamps on open roads That shine above them Do your fingers want to feel Tunnels made of dampened steel? And why pretend that you're so dull May I say, you're beautiful It makes want to turn this thing around You'll ride with me tonight You will ride with me tonight You will ride with me tonight
