Down by the bayou, Down by the bayou, I saw Good things inside you Good things inside you, they call Into my memories of old, Tell me what you know! I saw a man there, I saw a man and sat down I shook his hand there I shook his hand, he laughed loud And put a question to my heart
A question, oh, so sharp
He said, 'hey, wish man, tell me what's your wish, Close your eyes all we got is this! Angels speak of a thing called bliss Close your eyes all we got is this, yeah! So what to say love So what to say when that turned I was overwhelmed and I stood and let my house burn Cause I saw horses in the sky, Let me take that ride!
I walked on there, I walked on with thoughts deep I never knew that love could dig way down and bury me I turn and face I do not run Another chapter has begun, forever one!
He said, 'hey, wish man, tell me what's your wish, Close your eyes all we got is this! 'Hey, wish man, tell me what's your wish, Close your eyes all we got is this! Angels speak of a thing called bliss Close your eyes all we got is this, yeah! So what to say love So what to say when that turned I was overwhelmed and I stood and let my house burn Cause I saw horses in the sky, Let me take that ride!
If I'm straying far away, I get down and start to pray Cause I know, I know Tthat my song will reach those heavens I stand up I'm not forgetting I know, I know, I know!
He said, 'hey, wish man, tell me what's your wish, Close your eyes all we got is this! 'Hey, wish man, tell me what's your wish, Close your eyes all we got is this!
