barefoot feet

your barefoot feet left stains of silver on the golden sunrise
leaking trails of laughter like you once danced through my head
worn down soles keep rhythm though the music never faltered
fiddle strains snap heartache like the blues

oh dip me, turn me, sideways, under
tip your hat and watch me wonder
i don't think i can stand it anymore
your feet make me feel like dancing

when skies are grey we'll run away seek solace in our burning mountain
dark brown footprints muddy with a love we've never shown
blaze the skies of longing with the beat of premonition
we'll kick our legs and and lose the fading horrors

oh dip me, turn me, sideways, under
tip your hat and watch me wonder
i don't think i can stand it anymore
your feet make me feel like dancing

your toenails chipped and dirt-stained will dig into the grey-green forest
breathe into the wind just as your breath will never die
put down roots, but never stop your constant motion
grounded in a harmony like fingers intertwined

oh dip me, turn me, sideways, under
tip your hat and watch me wonder
i don't think i can stand it anymore
your feet make me feel like dancing

up on your toes your arms outstretched
wind blowing in your ears
our muscles burn and tides will turn
your barefoot feet keep rhythm with the sun

oh...

dip me, turn me, sideways, under
tip your hat and watch me wonder
i don't think i can stand it anymore

you make my feet feel like dancing.
