I Saw A Singer

I saw a singer
she sang me her songs
she made me believe her
she made me belong
she walked me through canyons
of love and of loss
of reckless abandon
of payin’ the cost

I saw a singer
she sang of her past
she sang of the heartbreaks
and the shadows they cast
she sang of redemption
of joy and of sadness
of losing someone
of losing them to madness

I saw a singer
she sang for me today

I saw a singer
she traveled in time
we traveled together
we traveled in rhyme
on reflective rivers
where waters run deep
where you can share secrets
of glory and grief

I saw a singer
she sang for me today

I saw a singer
her songs were a spell
and they sent me deeper
down the wishing well

down with a million dreams
and prayers left there before me
down a million streams
of tales and of story
with the taste of tears
born straight from the beauty
of the sound of her voice
still there running through me

I saw a singer
she sang for me today

yeah I saw a singer
she sang for me today
