Lyrics

CHORUS
(C) Sometimes it only takes a little (G) act
(F) To trigger an avalanche of (G) hope
(C) Sometimes it just (G) takes another (Am) day
(F) For this one to end a better (C) way

VERSE1 (more to be written later)
(F) Little acts keep stacking, (C) Day after day
(F) They can build a movement (G) Love finds a way
(F) A swarm of tiny bees (C) can chase a man away
(F) There is strength in numbers (G) If we don't delay

I needed to hear this today, thank you. Love the line about the swarm of bees! I like the simplicity in the melody and changes, to drive home a not-so-simple thought. I know this was written to give others hope; I hope it lifted you as well! Nicely done -- make sure you keep us updated on the verse to come!

The guitar-and-vocals approach is so effective here; there's an optimism and positivity that's absolutely infectious, and much needed these days.

We really need songs like this right now, so I hope you continue with it! Musically, it's very warm and inviting, and the lyrics are totally on point for the current situation. Here's to hope! Maybe future verses could be about specific "little acts" that you've seen or done (smiling at a stranger who's having a bad day, holding the door for someone, complimenting someone, paying for someone's meal if they forget their wallet, etc.). Nice job!

Lyrics are so true and the music it’s really comforting. Thanks for sharing.

This song is so good. This is the third song I've heard about hope in the past few minutes. (One of them is mine) "they can build a movement. Love finds away"
