I gotta sing about the world around me
I do it to just get right through the day
I gotta sing about the world around me
I just need to hear the music play
and when it swirls around my head just like a dream
it spills out and it not quite what it seems
but it reflects a bending light inside of me
so we sing along until we feels happy
but now the music's slowly dieing and the words are getting soft
the breath is just a breeze moving through the trees
and now it’s just a whisper that is heard through the fog
just wishing and waiting for the next filling song
so grab a cup a tea and curl up next to me
the show's about to start let me tell you where we are
setting up the time and place move the hair that's in your face
and so we just let go and feel the song
