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
