Meaning - After observing my nephew and his worry-less mind, I realized how afraid of the future we all are.
Lyrics
Morning Sunlight
One summer day I woke up early
recollect my passing dream
out in the yard I saw my nephew
playing soldiers in the stream
so here’s to Luke and all his smiling
he doesn’t care to know what the future brings
Please come and comfort me
cause I don’t feel so certain that I do belong
please come and read my palm
tell me what the future holds for me in song
See you in the morning sunlight
we gotta find a place to go
I’ve been searching for some reason
as to how this came about
at 24 you’d think I’d have found this
but its patience I’m without
more and more my minds leaps boundaries
the effervescent goal is wrecked
Saving songs just for my memory
to remind me of a special place back in the day
turning lights on where there were none
helps me see a little further on down the road
