Silently the morning mist is lying on the water
captive moonlight waiting for the dawn
Softly like a baby's breath a breeze begins to whisper
the sun is coming, quick we must be gone
Smiling like a superstar the morning comes in singing
the promise of another sunny day
And all the flowers open up to gather in the sunshine
I do believe that summer's here to stay
And oh, I love the life within me
I feel a part of everything I see
And oh, I love the life around me
a part of everything is here in me
Riding on the tapestry of all there is to see
so many ways and oh so many things
Rejoicing in the differences there's no one just like me
yet as different as we are we're still the same
And oh, I love the life within me
I feel a part of everything I see
And oh, I love the life around me
a part of everything is here in me
a part of everything is here in me
a part of everything is here in me
Reflections in the water
like shadows in my mind
speak to me of passing days and nights
and passing time
The falling leaves are whispering
winter's on its way
I close my eyes remembering
the warmth of yesterday
It seems a shame to see September
swallowed by the wind
and more than that it's oh so sad
to see the summer end
And though the changing colors
are a lovely thing to see
if it were mine to make a change
I think I'd let it be
But I don't remember hearing anybody asking me
It's cold and it's getting colder
it's gray and white and winter all around
And oh, I must be getting older
and all this snow is trying to get me down
There's a fire in the corner slowly dying
sometimes I just don't feel like going on
And yet I know it's more than worth the waiting
for another chance to see the summer sun
Come on shine on me
There's a fire in the corner slowly dying
sometimes I just don't feel like going on
And yet I know it's more than worth the waiting
for another chance to see the summer sun
Come on shine on me
Open up your eyes and see the brand new day
a clear blue sky and brighty shining sun
open up your ears and hear the breezes say
everything that’s cold and gray is gone
Open up your hands and feel the rain come on down
taste the wind and smell the flowers’ sweet perfume
Open up your mind and let the light shine in
the earth has been reborn and life goes on
And do you care what’s happening around you
Do your senses know the changes when they come
Can you see yourself reflected in the seasons
Can you understand the need to carry on
Riding on the tapestry of all there is to see
so many ways and oh, so many things
Rejoicing the differences, there’s no one just like me
Yet as different as we are we’re still the same
And oh, I love the life within me
I feel a part of everything I see
And oh, I love the life around me
a part of everything is here in me
a part of everything is here in me
a part of everything is here in me
