Take Your Place Lyrics

I want to take you

A million miles from here

It was my charge to hold the twilight

Keep the river running clear

You have your mother's eye for mischief

You have my storm and blues

And a coruscating flame that's only you

If I had the answer

For moving time and space

If I if I if I could take your place

I want to give you

A sun that wouldn't pale

A hundred years of summer

A compass for your sail

I loved you more than life

From the moment it was you

I'll still hold you if our world will break in two

If I had the answer

For moving time and space

If I if I if I could take your place

If I had the power

To bring a moment's grace

If I if I if I could take your place

We can run straight through the slipstream

Soar on wounded wings

Past angels in the alley and devils on the wind

And I'll conduct an orchestra playing your refrain

Just like lightening dancing freely through the rain

If I had the answer

For moving time and space

If I if I if I could take your place

If I had the power

To bring a moment's grace

If I if I if I could take your place

If I could take your place
