Lyrics (c) 2024 Paul Worsham
[verse]
The shadows whisper my fate
when I turn away at night
I’m soothed by sounds of the rain
like fate, just out of sight
I sense an optimistic sun
our journey’s just begun
[chorus]
A life that’s full, fast and slow
we love what we know
echoes in the flow
echoes in the flow
[verse]
Ideas come to help me
From people I can not know
Thank them as they set me free
from paths in the shallows
I’m thoughtful of the biased spin
choosing my states within
[chorus]
A life that’s full, fast and slow
we love what we know
echoes in the flow
echoes in the flow
[bridge]
Grateful thoughts I seed inside
like a profound symphony
My wisdom dances in stride
with others’ grand synergy
[chorus]
A life that’s full, fast and slow
we love what we know
echoes in the flow
echoes in the flow
