about

This is a song I wrote sitting my a river in South Dakota. I hope that it relaxes you and helps you let go of whatever stress and worry you're carrying with you. Close your eyes and go to your happy place ; )...but really, feel free.

lyrics

Mmm mmm mmmm mmmm
Mmm mmm mmmm mmmm

Lookin' through dirty glasses as all the water passes me by, bye bye
Moonshine beaming' down, nothin's what I'm thinkin' bout
cuz this is good enough, for me now.
Who says life gets any better than this?

No one knows what tomorrow holds
its rolled up in God's big scrolls and thats all right by me
I got no place to be but I'd sure enjoy some company
yea we could just sit awhile, and talk, and I'd tell you that

I've come to my conclusion that most people are illusions
so I close my eyes and smile because I know,
it's out of my controooool,

oooh oooh oooh oooh

I feel so small in this big field, to natures forces I must yield
but its when I melt our shield that my inner wounds healed
My minds at peace for now at least
my soul will have the greatest feast on your love, on your love cuz baby

I've come to my conclusion that most people are illusions
so I close my eyes and smile because I know,
It's out of my controooool ooh ooh ooh
oooh oooh oooh oooh

Come on just let go, whoa oh

Its here i drift back bye and bye, dreaming dreams of soaring high
watching swifts swoop by in this South Dakota sky
the winds of change have rearranged my thoughts
and you may think me strange but that's ok, cuz I'm home here on the range
where I've…

I've come to my conclusion that most knowledge is illusion so I close my eyes and smile because I know
It's out of my control

I feel so small in this big field, to natures forces I must yield
but its when we melt our shield that my inner wounds healed
My minds at peace for now at least
my soul did have the greatest feast on your love, on your love cuz baby

Big VERSE 4
I've come out here to be alone, there's darkness where the sun once shone
Ive come to chase the storm that's been brewin' in my bones
The lightning strike and the thunder roll, so I'll curl up here in my hole
and sleep, let it go, cuz i know, its out of my control

F G
Come on just let go, whoa oh (X4 - building each time in intensity)
F G
Like it was, ever really in our hands anyway TO INTRO

Last Verse
Its here i drift back bye and bye, dreaming dreams of soaring high
watching swifts swoop by in this South Dakota sky
the winds of change have rearranged my thoughts
and you may think me strange but that's ok, cuz I'm home here on the range
where I've… CHORUS
F G C
END: Who says life, gets any better than this?
