Harry Chapin - Legends of the Lost and Found lyrics

[Harry Chapin - Legends of the Lost and Found lyrics]

We are the lovers
We are bound to one another
By a bond that is invisible
Yet stronger still than time
And we're locked into the motion
That moves beneath the ocean
Rolling toward the future that makes
Pain the only crime
Now I know you are the answer
You're the damsel and the dancer
The angel with the devil eyes
That knows about the beat
You remove the masks and faces and
You see the shadowed places
That only witches look for in
The cradle of the heat

Have you heard of the Legend
Of the Lost and Found?
It tells of a world turnin' upside down
When all the kings have become the clowns
The beggars are crowned
The Legend of the Lost and Found

So I become the reacher more
The pilgrim than the preacher
The savage's been ravaged by the
Visions of the smoke
As I'm peeling back the layers to
The passions of my prayers
I have seen the ramparts where
The molten waters broke
Your heart's a sacred kingdom that
Has colonized my soul
My past's the shattered fragment that
Somehow you made whole
Today's your gift to fondle
Your offering to feel
Tomorrow is the promise that
Somehow you've made real

Have you heard of the Legend
Of the Lost and Found?
It tells of a world turnin' upside down
When all the kings have become the clowns
The beggars are crowned
The Legend of the Lost and Found

So l'll sing you every silly, sad
And happy song I know
And you'll open every part of you
That you've got left to show
And I'll pour myself around you like
The sunshine drowns the field
And in the golden softness we will yield
And in the golden softness we will yield
