Jars of Clay - The Chair lyrics

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

<i>[Chorus:]</i>

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

<i>[Bridge]</i>

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

<i>[Chorus x 2]</i>
