about

In a time when so much feels shifting and at risk, it has felt really important and grounding to me to be able to take in the beauty of the world that surrounds us. This is a song that I wrote a few years ago, and it felt like the time was right to record it and offer it to you. I'm joined by a few friends, all of whom recorded themselves in their homes and sent me the tracks to coordinate. I hope it lifts you!

lyrics

Everywhere, everywhere there is beauty
And I see beauty everywhere that I go
Lift me up from despair, come and soothe me
Reach right through me
Hold me harder than I've ever known

Seems like the cost of life
Is so much higher than what we had saved
A sea of frost and ice
Is trying to bury us under its wave
Just look around
Why is it that you're so afraid?

A few dozen years to hang around
And take things past where they were when we came
Some fly away, some run aground,
Some spin in circles, but if it's all the same
I'd rather walk
Will you help me find flowers on the way?
