| Down by the bayou,
|
| Down by the bayou, I saw
|
| Good things inside you
|
| Good things inside you, they call
|
| Into my memories of old,
|
| Tell me what you know!
|
| I saw a man there,
|
| I saw a man and sat down
|
| I shook his hand there
|
| I shook his hand, he laughed loud
|
| And put a question to my heart
|
| A question, oh, so sharp
|
| He said, 'hey, wish man, tell me what’s your wish,
|
| Close your eyes all we got is this!
|
| Angels speak of a thing called bliss
|
| Close your eyes all we got is this, yeah!
|
| So what to say love
|
| So what to say when that turned
|
| I was overwhelmed and
|
| I stood and let my house burn
|
| Cause I saw horses in the sky,
|
| Let me take that ride!
|
| I walked on there,
|
| I walked on with thoughts deep
|
| I never knew that love could dig way down and bury me
|
| I turn and face I do not run
|
| Another chapter has begun, forever one!
|
| He said, 'hey, wish man, tell me what’s your wish,
|
| Close your eyes all we got is this!
|
| 'Hey, wish man, tell me what’s your wish,
|
| Close your eyes all we got is this!

|
| So what to say love
|
| So what to say when that turned
|
| I was overwhelmed and
|
| I stood and let my house burn
|
| Cause I saw horses in the sky,
|
| Let me take that ride!
|
| If I’m straying far away, I get down and start to pray
|
| Cause I know, I know
|
| That my song will reach those heavens
|
| I stand up I’m not forgetting
|
| I know, I know, I know!
|
| He said, 'hey, wish man, tell me what’s your wish,
|
| Close your eyes all we got is this!
