Innocent I was born a queen
Woke to life I thought it was a dream
I was lying in the gutter when a hand unseen
Poured down the sun on New York City
I went sailing through the streets
On a sea of faces
I was just another person
That time erases
It was All Soul's Day and I was not afraid
I felt I had a reason to live that day
And it seemed to me that something good
Is coming if you think it could
And I don't know when
and I don't know how
But I put my head into the clouds
And it's beautiful
It's beautiful
It's beautiful
Life is
Now I'm flying over bridges
And the sun's in my eyes
Skyscrapers shining and trains roll by
I thought I saw myself among the passersby
We're walking on the water
Walking on the light
