lyrics

Morning coffee opened fingers to the air
Laughing sunlight telling me the day is there
Open window, sounds of life lining the street
but Lyn woke up to a colorless beat.

It's sad, you see, because life is beautiful inside, you
just have to follow your heart until you find
happiness that lives and loves to be your dreams that you
can't follow now, it's time to take the lead.

Diamonds in the night and dusty ballet shoes.
She don't dance no more, no Lyn has got the blues.
She traded her dreams for the dream of geting through
Because life is now just something that we do.

You've gotta feel the smiles in the air you breathe,
if you're going to learn to see.
It's opening your heart that will lead you to
the love you are, just remember to be.

Jonas etched his dreams playing his guitar,
but inside he was cold and inside he was dark, oh
until he found his roots, now his branches grow and shoot
and kiss the dreaming blue, and now his leaves are falling for you.

You've gotta feel the smiles in the air you breathe,
if you're going to learn to see.
It's living with some heart that will lead you to
the love you are, just remember to be.

You've gotta feel the smiles in the air you breathe,
if you're going to learn to see.
It's following your heart that will lead you to
the love you are,
Just remember to be yourself and who you are
Don't ever try to be someone your not, and throw away
the gifts you've got.
Just learn and live and laugh and beam
and dance and sing until it seems
that your life is just a dream.
