one of my favorite songs, the ambiance throughout this song is very nice to sit back with the headphones on and close your eyes…some nice piano work, strings really sound sweet, and a nice bridge when the piano solo comes in and nice lyrics. =z=

i wrote about a friend who persevered through rough times but still managed to take care of her child, deliver papers, go to school, and clean houses and then have enough time to go to sleep…i always admired her for her strong character and determination so I wrote this.

carolsong
she sings to the morning light
she talks to the angels at night
but do they really hear her
if she could just get nearer
her dreams of yesterday would still be around
(yea they would)

she makes the standard wage at the edge of town
but she won’t walk with her head hanging down
and she knows just what she wants
and has no time for debutantes
nor all the little bastards all around

don’t look for things that you know
find out what’s true down in your soul
just persevere your dreams are near
so take a chance and they’ll appear

she stares out to the silent streets at night
past the darkness to the light
looking for the answers to
who to be and what to do
but the empty silent streets
never make a sound

you know it’s time the time is now
and now it’s time for you to be
you understood and you knew you could
and now it’s time for you to see…
-piano-

now once you find your place in life you’ll see
that all your dreams were really meant to be
it all becomes so crystal clear
when you’re the only one you hear
so go and show the people far and near

so sing to the morning light (baby)
and talk to your angels at night
you’ll find out that they do hear you
and always there right near to you
and eyes that use to cry
wont shed a tear
shed a tear
shed a tear
