Lyrics
Busting at the Seams
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.
Everything is busting at the seams,
No more seams, no more binding.
Even in my dreams,
A golden glow is shining.
My dreams are breaking through
Into the everyday.
And every day the world is new.
Don't be afraid, don't be afraid,
The world is being made all over.
It will be good enough then
For the lover, for the mother,
And the father, and the child.
Don't be afraid if everything seems wild
Cause everything is busting at the seams.
