Under the Falling Sky

Jackson Browne

Warm and lovely mystery, 
Fire smiling through 
Before this moment fades away 
I want to know you 
I've got lightening in my pocket, 
Thunder in my shoe 
Have no fear I've got something here 
I want to show you 

Low, under the falling sky 
Easily we will lie 
While I bring it to you 

It's a low road, a high wire 
Going from me to you 
And in your eyes 
The distance left is closing 
I've got a feeling in my oceans 
Blood underneath my skin 
That into your bright fields 
This prison is opening 

Low, under the falling sky 
Easily we will lie 
While I bring it to you 

Our shadows wake each day 
Though they don't know why 
They hope and try -- live and die 
So leave them in their frozen world 
Come and be my lover 
If only for one stolen moment 
We will live forever 

Warm and lovely mystery, 
Can you hear the choir? 
Voices can no longer hold my desire 
Abandon your sad history 
And meet me in the fire 
Our angels wait 
To take us higher and higher 
Higher and higher 

Low, under the falling sky 
Easily we will lie 
While I bring it to you
