I won’t soon forget the day
I slipped and fell into the Milky Way
And the shimmering lights of a billion stars
shone like fireflies in Mason jars
I won’t soon forget the night
the owl shared a gift of flight
and I silently rise over rocks and trees
beneath the watchful eyes of the Pleaides
Chorus
But of all the beauty I have seen
Wide awake or in my dreams
Nothing moves me
Nothing moves me
Nothing moves me like you do
I overcame a fear of heights
To catch the beauty of the Northern Lights
With the city below me and the clouds at my feet
Beheld its gorgeous luminosity
Chorus
I won’t forget we got the chance
To ride the crest of the avalanche
Well it shivered my timbers, it rolled like a whale
All sparkling white like a wedding veil
It bucked like a mustang, it struck like a pike
It was everything I wanted true love to be like
Chorus (modified)
But of all the beauty I have seen
Wide awake or in my dreams
And of all the beauty I have known
In the world and on my own
Nothing moves me
None of that moves me
Nothing moves me like you do
Like you do
