Sky

Long as I can see the sky
Nothing can bring me down
Long as I can see the sky
I will make my way around
Even if I lose all my money
If they take my last guitar away
Even if they throw me in jail
I won’t die
Long as I can see the sky

Long as I can hear you breathe
I don’t need nothin up my sleeve
Long as I can hear you breathe
Breathe like the wind in the trees
Even if my bones are a breakin
Even if my breath is slow
Even if the whole world is cryin I won’t grieve
Long as I can hear your breathe

All of us are gods
Or none of us are gods
Or neither, or both, or sometimes
Or sometimes not
Take it to the hole
Take it to the rack
I’ll sleep on the ground
I’ll sleep on the floor
I’m self taught
I’ll sleep on the cot

I won’t try to right no wrongs
I won’t try to slow the sun
I won’t push the clouds away
When the storm comes I won’t run
Long as I can hear you breathing
And see the sky above
I will walk my way
Long as I can feel your love

(lyrics: Dan Bern)
