Sunshine on my face

I woke up this morning
could feel the morning chill
stepped outside to take on the winter
the clouds and fog were thick with rain and other sorts of nasty

but I could feel the sunshine on my face…

the flowers in the yard are soggy
wont be back till spring
the trees are bare without their leaves
looking near as lost as me

but still, I could feel the sunshine on my face…

I went back inside , grabbed my guitar and played that song
ya’ know, the one that always made you smile?
I thought about how you would laugh and sing
and a happy tear escaped my eye

even inside, I could feel the sunshine on my face

I threw the ball around with the dog
is there anything better than teaching an old dog new tricks?
which makes me think out loud
“maybe I’m the old dog, learning how to just be me”

my God, I can feel the sunshine on my face…

the rain and fog is still thick in the air
and while I maybe spending this day by myself
I can hear the church bells sing
I can feel the universe opening up to me…

and yes, I can still feel that beautiful sun, shinning on my face.
Peace, Love.
