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!"
Late winter, early spring when everybody goes to mexico)
(Instrumental)
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
