Thanks Kristi for allowing me to sing your lyrics!
THE BIRDS STILL SING
I take a sip of my morning tea
And thank the warmth it brings me
Happy the sun decided to shine
It always seems to clear my mind
I step outside to measure the snow
Don’t even bother to put on a coat
My shoes don’t sink when I walk
I hear distant sounds of birds that talk
[ch]
Oh…despite the cold
The birds still sing
Busy with life
Getting ready for Spring
The stillness gives me
Room to think
And I smile
Knowing the birds still sing
I squint my eyes as the sun beats down
Amazed at the shine reflected all around
Tracks from the plow make bold patterns
And suddenly I know what really matters
[ch]
Oh…despite the cold
The birds still sing
Busy with life
Getting ready for Spring
The stillness gives me
Room to think
And I smile
Knowing the birds still sing
[br]
Another day to dream
Another day for hope
I don’t mind the chill on my cheeks
Because it makes my blood flow
Repeat ch

Beautiful, contemplative write, the images and descriptors just place us right where you want us to be. The sweet melody and melancholy feel to it is very relaxing, piano is perfect for this lyric. Great collab!!
