Story behind the song
These lyrics came from a rest day....asking myself the question; “have I really made a difference in people’s lives?”. When “I stopped to look at the view”, I was doing better than I thought.
Lyrics
Verse 1
Sometimes you got to stop and enjoy the view
Stock take what you can find,
You’ll have a little more than what you knew
Smell the coffee and be surprised.
Chorus 1
Cos there is more
Than you can see
Love and grace
Eternity,
The seeds you’ve sown
The memories
The things that last
In the unseen.
Verse 2
You’ll see you’ve done more than you think you have
Helping people to shape their lives
You’ve been there the most when they needed you
Take a little look and be surprised.
Chorus 2
Can you see
What you can’t see
Important things
Reality,
The Life within
Life with skin
One on one
Harmony.
Chorus 3
Can you see
What you can’t see
Seeds will grow into
Eternity,
The Life without
Life with skin
The things that last
Is the unseen.
Wooah
Musically: The song ends where it starts...this is the cycle of eternity or the circuit of spiritual living. Life comes from the spiritual and goes back there. The “down a step chord” (“G” down to “F”) gives a feel of something unfinished. The fade out is also meant to give this feel. I hope you like the other “non standard” chords.
Lyrics: Life starts from God and goes back to Him. God is the Seed, that seed grows through us and we sow the same seeds. The grows into life in others. These lyrics came from a rest day....asking myself the question; “have I really made a difference in people’s lives?”. When “I stopped to look at the view”, I was doing better than I thought.
