SONG NOTES: This is a song enjoyed writing. This is a WALTZ and a simple lullaby, and a solo-vocal and acoustic guitar, folk, pop-country ballad. A little bit of "everything". LOL! It's a simple song everyone can play. Usually, my vocals and guitar works are more animated and intricate, but this is recorded in a lower register where it shares shades of, perhaps, Alan Jackson, Emmylou Harris, Boz Skaggs and Aaron Neville. The idea for the song came from some musings I have had about the world we are living in, so it is, in essence, a "World Song". A laid-back, gentle and song you could sing to your kids. As I stated, it is recorded in a WALTZ tempo, but there is also a full orchestral instrumental That I produced in 4/4. I'll be adding a vocal to that, if there is a demand and need for it. So grab your partner and dance a quiet waltz-lullaby. Enjoy.
VERSE 1
Yesterday’s gone
Tomorrow’s a sunrise away
Leaving one place to be, it’s today
If I fill my day with peace
Remember to set myself free
Kneel in a field of wonders
And sow the seeds of my dreams
LIFT
I’ll grow a song inside me
That gives us all that we need
To smile at every horizon
And truly believe
CHORUS
Deep inside love holds the key
Unlocking all our dreams
When we open our hearts
And set them all free
And sing, we believe
BRIDGE
There are golden trails, that weave thru the stars
They fill the sky, and shine thru the dark
Lighting the hills - that lead us to where - we can see
CHORUS
Deep inside where love holds the key
Unlocks all of our dreams
When we open our eyes
To set them all free
We believe
VERSE 2
The future is now
In the reflections I see
Smiling inspirations
Waiting patiently
Till I finally find the time
To frame images with rhymes
And mix melodies inside
That flow from my heart and my mind
LIFT
We’ll share this song inside us
It gives us all that we need
To smile at every horizon
'Cause, we truly believe
CHORUS
Deep inside love - holds the key
Unlocks all of our dreams
When we open our hearts
And set them all free
And believe
And believe
Believe today
