lyrics

I hear my voice, it’s a thousand whispers blowing through the trees like a gentle wind. I see my face, it’s a still reflection in the quiet waters where the river bends.

And I, I am a song. Gentle and still but quietly strong. And I, I am the words reaching the ears of all who have heard. All who have heard.

I feel my hands, they’re a tender cradle for a baby bird fallen from the nest. And in my mouth, it’s the sweetest nectar at the flowers center that leaves moths refreshed.

And I, I am a song. Tender and sweet, but lovingly strong. And I, I am the words reaching the ears of all who have heard. All who have heard.

I smell my scent, redolent of pine trees in the mountain air just before the rain. I know my soul, it’s the earthen music that is ever present deep within my veins.

And I, I am a song. Sent through the air and boundlessly strong. And I, I am the words reaching the ears of all who have heard. All who have heard.

I hear my voice, it’s a thousand whispers, blowing through the trees like a gentle wind. I see my face, it’s a still reflection in the quiet waters where the river bends.
