How Could I?
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.
How could I forget such a revelation
To love without fear and learn without question
How could I regret the meant occasions
I must begin this day again
Freedom and reason shine through
Paddle upon the clouds one's own canoe
How could I?
Humility take charge of me
Drown me in truth's modest waters
Loosen your grip, identity
Free me from an ego's falter
Freedom and reason shine through
How could I?
Love too often is only a dream
If I am harsh and unkind to myself
So I share these attitudes with you
Must I try?
How could I?
(lead: Paul)
Freedom and reason shine through
Paddle upon the clouds one's own canoe
Love too often is only a dream
How could I?
Love too often is only a dream
If I am harsh and unkind to myself
So I share these attitudes with you
For in this spewing cadence of my pride
How could I?
(lead: Jason)
