lyrics

Verse 1:

At some point spring came
And now the grass is growing,
But it won’t be rushed.

Wild daisies have
Never seen their reflection;
If they did they’d blush.

Chorus:
Everything just is, everything just is
Everything just is, everything just is.

Verse 2:

Feeling the sunlight
On my skin is just a hint
Of what the tree feels.

White pine butterfly
Contemplating a clover,
And how her mind reels.

Repeat Chorus

Verse 3:

The breeze doesn’t mind
Taking the long way around;
It enjoys the view.

The rock sits as the
Ocean waves go rolling by;
It’s something to do.

Repeat Chorus

Bridge:
Everything just is,
And everything it does
It only does because
It’s doing as it is,
And everything just is.

Verse 4:
Pushing the water
To make it hurry up just
Makes the stream muddy.

The crow sits high up
On the Douglas fir tree’s peak--
What is it he sees?

Chorus 2x's
