lyrics
The morning was chill and the dew was fresh
A day of new starts and promises
Awake with the dawn, as quiet as the mist
The land it speaks to me, in a voice that only I hear
Just leave me alone, just let me be
I can’t keep up with you anyway
You’re speaking too fast and moving too quick
I can not hear your words
I can’t give you what you need
You can beat me and strike me and loose my teeth
You can push me to the ground
I still won’t know what you’re looking for
And I still won’t make a sound
I still won’t make a sound
I lie on my back and the sun comes up
My spirit soars with the wind
There’s so much beauty in this world
I could not ask for more
I long to show you the view
The evening was cool and the slightest breeze
Awakens me from my reverie
My ribs are bruised and my eye is closed
But I start back down the hill
I will forgive you – yes I will
The twilight is chill and the moon is full
A time of new starts and promises
I sleep with the dusk, as quiet as the stars
The night it speaks to me, in a voice that only I hear
A day of new starts and promises
Awake with the dawn, as quiet as the mist
The land it speaks to me, in a voice that only I hear
Just leave me alone, just let me be
I can’t keep up with you anyway
You’re speaking too fast and moving too quick
I can not hear your words
I can’t give you what you need
You can beat me and strike me and loose my teeth
You can push me to the ground
I still won’t know what you’re looking for
And I still won’t make a sound
I still won’t make a sound
I lie on my back and the sun comes up
My spirit soars with the wind
There’s so much beauty in this world
I could not ask for more
I long to show you the view
The evening was cool and the slightest breeze
Awakens me from my reverie
My ribs are bruised and my eye is closed
But I start back down the hill
I will forgive you – yes I will
The twilight is chill and the moon is full
A time of new starts and promises
I sleep with the dusk, as quiet as the stars
The night it speaks to me, in a voice that only I hear
