Magic Carpet Ride

Şarkı Sözleri

[Verse 1] You spread that woven red and gold Across the floor beside the door I climb aboard, you take the reins And lift us past the windowpanes [Pre-Chorus] The rooftops shrink to checker squares A paper kite salutes us there You grin and point beyond the blue The whole wide world is open view [Chorus] Take me on that magic carpet ride With the warm wind rolling at our side Over quiet towns and fields of green You and me above the waking scene Take me on that magic carpet ride Let the morning turn and stretch out wide [Verse 2] We skim above a market square The baker waves; we toss a pear It lands beside his basket fair He laughs and sends a loaf up there [Pre-Chorus] A river bends like polished glass The gulls fall back and let us pass You name the clouds like old friends do I save a place beside me for you [Chorus] Take me on that magic carpet ride With the warm wind rolling at our side Over quiet towns and fields of green You and me above the waking scene Take me on that magic carpet ride Let the morning turn and stretch out wide [Bridge] When the day turns amber at the edge We’ll drift back home above the hedge Fold up the sky, set down our feet And keep that faraway in reach [Final Chorus] Take me on that magic carpet ride With the warm wind rolling at our side Over quiet towns and fields of green You and me above the waking scene Take me on that magic carpet ride Let the morning turn and stretch out wide [Outro] Right beside you, side by side Still up there on that magic ride
