Sky Islands Lyrics

Would you walk with me
High above the clouds below
So we can feel without fear
A future that we've never known

For I believe that we still
Can make it out of here alive
If we can climb the rolling hills
Up to the island in the sky

I met a man at sundown
He said he come from San Antone
He had a horse named Downtown
Said he was born a running blood

He said, "My friend, you shall have him"
If on his back, you can ride
Across the river, down through the valley
Up to the island in the sky"
Up to the island in the sky

I've got my worry in my pocket
I've got my heart out on my sleeve
You got the silver heart-shaped locket
Ain't nothing else that we could need

Break in the weather, hold onto me
Cross your fingers and don't you cry
Get it together, we can make it
Up to the island in the sky
Up to the island in the sky
Up to the island in the sky
Up to the island in the sky
Up to the island in the sky

Would you walk with me
High above the clouds below
So we can feel without fear
A future that we've never known

For I believe that we still
Can make it out of here alive
If we can climb the rolling hills
Up to the island in the sky
Up to the island in the sky
Up to the island in the sky
