Listenin'

I'm just sitting here listenin. Won't the wind whisper in my ear?
I'm just sitting here listenin, for some feelings to come clear
What I'm feeling I just can't explain. If I sit long enough,maybe I'll find a way. Yes, I'm just sitting here listening for a song to come my way.

I'm just sitting her listenin,the leaves whisper in the trees.
I'm just sitting here listenin',the Bluebird's got some good ideas.
That's her song ,now I've gotta find mine.
Somewhere out there the muse is taking her time.
So I'm just sitting here listenin' aint no use to wonder why.
Could be the blues,well I can't tell.
Something bittersweet,far from cheap thrills.
Ground realities I hope to dwell with my feet in the dirt.
After awhile the clouds might shift.
A traveller comes along bearing a gift,
a magnifying glass to sift through clues to the obvious.

Yes, I'm just sitting here listenin-there's the news of the day.
I'm just sitting here listenin,death and destruction far away.
Still somehow it comes round to you,
the aching inside,the constant tune
People are in pain near and far away.

I'm just sitting here listenin'. I know I won't figure it out.
I'm just sitting here listenin',
there's too much to get your mind around
except to make a difference in one small step.
A little act of kindness just might help.
Who knows how far that butterfly can fly?
So I'm just sitting her listenin'
maybe I'll get up bye and bye.
