Summer
|
|
Silently the morning mist is lying on the water
|
Captive moonlight waiting for the dawn
|
Softly like a baby’s breath a breeze begins to whisper
|
The sun is coming, quick you must be gone
|
Smiling like a superstar the morning comes in singing
|
The promise of another sunny day
|
And all the flowers open up to gather in the sunshine
|
I do believe that summer’s here to stay
|
|
And oh I love the life within me
|
I feel "a" part of everything I see
|
And oh I love the life around me
|
A part of everything is here in me
|
|
"Writing" on the tapestry of all there is to see
|
So many ways and oh so many things
|
Rejoicing in the differences, ther"e"’s no one just like me
|
Yet as different as we are we’re still the same
|
|
And oh I love the life within me
|
I feel "a" part of everything I see
|
And oh I love the life around me
|
A part of everything is here in me
|
"A part of everything is here in me
|
A part of everything is here in me"
|
|
|
Fall
|
|
Reflections "in" the water like shadows in my mind
|
Speak to me of passing days and nights and passing time
|
The falling leaves are whispering winter’s on it’s way
|
I close my eyes remembering the warmth of yesterday
|
|
It seems a shame to see September swallowed by the "wind"
|
And more than that it’s oh so sad to see the summer end
|
And though the changing colors are a lovely thing to see
|
If it were mine to make the change "I think" I’d let it be
|
|
But I don’t remember hearing anybody asking me
|
|
|
Winter
|
|
It’s cold and it’s getting colder
|
It’s gray and white and winter all around
|
And oh I must be getting older
|
"And" all this snow is trying to get me down
|
|
There’s a fire in the corner slowly dyin’"(away)"
|
Sometimes I just don’t feel like goin’ on "(anymore)"
|
And yet I know it’s more than worth the waiting
|
For another chance to see the summer sun
|
|
Come on, shine on me!
|
|
"There’s a fire in the corner slowly dyin’ (away)
|
Sometimes I just don’t feel like goin’ on (anymore)
|
And yet I know it’s more than worth the wasting (away)
|
For another chance to see the summer sun
|
|
Come on, shine on me!"

|
|
|
Spring
|
|
Open up your eyes and see "the" brand new day
|
A clear blue sky and brightly shining sun
|
Open up your ears and hear the breezes say
|
Everything that’s cold and gray "is" gone
|
|
Open up your hands and feel the rain come "on" down
|
Taste the wind and smell the flowers’ sweet perfume
|
Open up your mind and let the light "shine" in
|
The earth has been reborn and life goes on
|
|
"And" do you care what’s happening around you
|
Do your senses know the changes when they come
|
Can you see yourself reflected in the seasons
|
Can you understand the need to carry on
|
|
"Writing" on the tapestry of all there is to see
|
So many ways and oh so many things
|
Rejoicing in the differences, there’s no one just like me
|
Yet as different as we are we’re still the same
|
|
And oh I love the life within me
|
I feel a part of everything I see
|
And oh I love the life "around" me
|
A part of everything is here in me
|
A part of everything is here in me
|
A part of everything is here in me
|
