Painter with oils and words and guitar strings
You make me with I could skate or fly or sing
In that easy way that you do
Like a kite on a summer breeze
With so much beauty and truth
You make me want to be free
You captured the morning air, all crisp and clean
On a notebook page, crowded with desert dreams
And the mirages of the heart
Its always up to some scheme
Coyote has to play his part
It's an endless game of hide and seek
Joni you showed me the world
In a melody and a phrase
From the cessna glass
It’s just a backgammon game
Joni you showed me your soul
In harmony and rhyme
Under the microscope
Of love and loss and time
Companion in my mind, heard not seen
Through all these years, and so many frozen streams
I wouldn’t have it any other way
Deep blues and a little green
Springing spirit into the gray
Beautiful ghost in my machine
I’m singing about you now like you were mine
But Amelia I know you belong to the sky
You are the moon hanging low
You are the sun when it’s on fire
The chickadee and the black crow
You make me want to reach higher
Joni you showed us the world
In a melody and a phrase
From the cessna glass
It’s just a backgammon game
Joni you showed us your soul
In harmony and rhyme
Under the microscope
Of love and loss and time
