I was rushing through the morning grey
On just another random day
I picked a dandelion from the ground
And the world stopped spinning round
While the clouds drew pictures in blue
Trees whispered the whole way through
I tried to keep a steady pace
But the sunlight held me in place
I just love the beautiful things
The painted sky that evening brings
I keep saying, I'll be there by ten
Then the sunset changes my plans again
I just love the beautiful things
And all the joy they can bring
It's a blessing and it's a crime
But I'm happy losing all my time
My coffee's getting cold on the shelf
Because a spider has outdone herself
Silver-thread lace home in the hall
It's so big and she's just so small
Now the puddles reflect up to space
The rain is writing riddles on my face
I was taking a walk in the dark
Now I'm finding constellations in the park
So much feeling for one small chest
To have this birdsong in my breath?
If wonder is a weight, then let me feel the crush
The world speaks loud while my mind is hushed
Let the moss grow on my hours as the moments stop
I'll stay right here until the final curtain drops
