Lyrics
I Heard You Say Hi (revised 2/1/17) (9/4/2015 peterthelast)
Verse
I'll always remember the first time you spoke to me
Hair gently teased by the warm wind above
First time I felt your calm eyes sliding over me
First time I watched you preparing for love
chorus
Saw you ride a white stallion beside the blue water
I heard you say hi
Your silver star shone like a holy medallion
Alone in the circling sky
verse
It's the way that you move with the secrets of Eve
As we ride through our lives on the tides of the Sun
Hold my flesh and my soul in the web that you weave
Come with me my lady together as one
Chorus
Saw you ride a white stallion beside the blue water
I heard you say hi
Your silver star shone like a holy medallion
Alone in the circling sky
Verse
So together we break like the waves on the sea
As we rise from the ashes of bondage and pain
Only love can survive in this land of the free
Where everything changes but truth stays the same
Chorus
Saw you ride a white stallion beside the blue water
I heard you say hi.
Your silver star shone like a holy medallion
All alone in the circling sky
Alone in the sky.
