"This World Just Takes My Breath Away"
Words & Music by James Nihan
The painted dawn, the spotted fawn
The crescent moon above the sea
When fledglings fly and touch the sky
They fly right through the heart of me
The mountain stream, the desert dream
Nature's palette in the spring
When dolphins play out on the bay
My smiling lips just have to sing
Chorus:
(But) Notes can never quite express
And words will struggle to explain
The countless ways that I am blessed
Each and every day
This world just takes my breath away
The Taj Mahal, Niagra Falls
All the wonders of the world
The galaxies, sequoia trees
The grain of sand that's now a pearl
And then there's you and all you do
To turn my head and catch my eye
You have my heart, you have my back
You have my ear with just a sigh
(Repeat Chorus)
You just take my breath away
This world just takes my breath away
