A Fire In The Forest
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
There is always sunshine
Above the grey sky
I will try to find it
Yes, I will try
My mind has been wandering
I hardly noticed
It's running on its own steam
I let it go
Oh here comes my childhood
A penny for your secrets
It's standing in the window
Not out here where it belongs
There's a fire in the forest
It's taking down some trees
When things are overwhelming
I let them be
I would like to see you
It's lovely to see you
Come and take me somewhere
Come take me out
There is always sunshine
Far above the grey sky
I know that I will find it
Yes, I will try
