Written about the feeling I get when I'm outside quietly listening and watching nature around me. Observing how life responds to the sun. How powerful those moments are in pushing away regret and fear, planting me in the moment; how they bring out songs from life.
I hope this song is as therapeutic for you as it is for me:
Lyrics
[Verse]
The birds are singing the sweetest song
To the coming sun
I think I’ve heard this one before
And as I listen to their call
My worries fall
That isn’t all there’s more
[Pre Chorus]
When I’m here near is the present
The past and future keep their distance
I let go of all that ails me
For the life of me I can’t resist this
[Chorus]
Oh sing the songs that come to you
Oh I’ll be listening when you do
[Verse]
The sun is shining through he trees
Its beams all reach all that was dark before
The life that needs it bends out toward to gather more
The sun’s free rewards
[Pre Chorus]
When I’m here near is the present
Bad memories and fears release
The weight of life becomes a feather
Aloft and dancing among the leaves
[Chorus]
Oh sing the songs that come to you
Oh I’ll be listening when you do
And to the sun just keep your light on
Reveal the truth and make shadows run
Oh keep your light on
Reveal the truth and make shadows run
