Lyrics My Land Is a Good Land - Eric Andersen

Take me to the night I'm tippin'
Topsy-turvy turnin' upside down
Hold me tight and whisper what you wish for
There is no one here around

You may sing-song me sweet smiles
Regardless of the city's careless frown
Come watch the no colors fade blazin'
Into petal sprays of violets of dawn

In blindful wonderment's enchantment
You can lift my wings softly to flight
Your eyes are like swift fingers
Reachin' out into the pockets of my night

Whirling twirlin' puppy warm
Before the flashing cloaks of darkness gone
Come see the no colors fade blazin'
Into petal sprays of violets of dawn

So prince charming I'll be on two white steeds
To bring you dappled diamond crowns
And climb your tower sleepin' beauty
'Fore you ever know I've left the ground

You can wear a Cinderella
Snow White, Alice Wonderlanded gown
Come watch the no colors fade blazin'
Into petal sprays of violets of dawn

But if I seem to wander off in dreamlike
Looks please let me settle slowly
It's only me just starin out at you
A seemin' stranger, speakin' holy

No I don't mean to wake you up
It's only loneliness just comin on
So let the no colors fade blazin'
Into petal sprays of violets of dawn

Like shadows burstin' into mist
Behind the echoes of this nonsense song
It's just a chase in whisperin trail of secret steps
Oh see them laughin' on

There's magic in the sleepiness
Of wakin' to a childish sounding yawn
Come watch the no colors fade blazin'
Into petal sprays of violets of dawn
