History

For this song, the lyrics and music came at just about the same time. At the time of writing, I wanted to get something down that was passionatly slow, yet inspiringly positive. Something to which you could feel good slow-dancing with your sweetheart. Well, it started off that way (grin). I got about halfway done with it (with the whole lyrical content written), and decided I had too many slow, sappy songs...so I changed everything, sped everything up, changed the ending lyrics, and decided to laugh them together. What I got was basically a mess, but a fun mess - darnit!
Lyrics

Everyone's lookin'.... for a place inside. A place for themselves A place to find...

Everyone's hopin'... for some greater good... to befall their lot.. like everyone should. (like everyone should...)

As I look to the light that’s shining brightly inside...
I wonder why we’re all lookin’ so hard...
The rainbow will come if we will look to the sun
that’s shining all around.

Come on, let’s take a deep breath and then we’ll think of the depth
of just how utterly depressed we’ve become...

(insanity begins...)

C’mon let’s all go out into the streets and then we’ll dance! (We’ll dance)
Clap your hands and feel the sun outside! C’mon give it a chance!

Let all your cares lift up off your shoulders
Grab the one you love and hold him closer
wrap the moment up until it’s going slower
If you love the world then you’ve got to show her...
