The Chair

  • She always knew the things to say
    She had a smile to end a frown
    Sometimes it seems she didn't notice
    Sometimes she dreams
    Sometimes she tries to dance

    She calls out "Hi Ho Silver" from her chair
    She dreams of somehow saving the day

    The chair a pressing door left open
    Her heart the key she always turns
    A locking peace no understanding
    It was all she knew
    And what she held on to

    [Chorus]
    She calls out "Hi Ho Silver" from her chair
    (she calls out "Hi Ho Silver")
    She dreams of somehow saving the day
    (she dreams)
    She rides out west into the sunset
    She knew she could, she'd somehow find a way

    Upon the legs that wouldn't carry
    Fly away around the sun
    And leave the misery for heaven
    And sometimes dream again the dance

    And as the grass grows through the concrete
    Life embraces bitter land
    She learned to trust, she learned to love
    She walked the dream, she walked the dance

    [Chorus: x2] Writer/s: CHARLIE LOWELL, DAN HASELTINE, MATT ODMARK, STEPHEN DANIEL MASON
