Turquoise Skies from Love Meditations by John King Cave

Turquoise skies, a sight too sweet for explanation
Turquoise skies, as the sun sets in the west
Turquoise skies, you remind me of my best friend
Turquoise skies, you remind me why I’m blessed

Touch of azurite and emerald
On the edge of something new
Let me love you till I’m yellow
Until I turn to midnight blue

Turquoise skies, open your heart and feel the magic
Turquoise skies, of all our dreams a-comin' true
Turquoise skies, although the wintertime seems tragic
Turquoise skies, don’t you be afraid to bloom

Whirling dervish in the distance
A premonition in the snow
A song that sings me through existence
Saying everything must go

Turquoise skies, eagles dance in exaltation
Turquoise skies, coyotes howling at the moon
Turquoise skies, spiders weaving creation
Turquoise skies, watching over me and you

Just a breath on the horizon
Just a stone deep in the earth
If in the next life I may linger
Under your shimmer
I’d be happy as the dirt

Turquoise skies, a sight too sweet for explanation
Turquoise skies, as the sun sets in the west
Turquoise skies, you remind me why I’m living
Turquoise skies, you remind me why I’m blessed
