Ceiling of My Heart

Liner Notes

Once again, super different than what I would normally put out but A SONG IS A SONG AND I GOT 14 TO MAKE

This ended up almost being Nashville bro country and the only way I could pull it in any other direction was with Bruce Hornsby keys, so there you go.

Lyrics

[chorus]
I can't help it, I see the beauty clear as crystal shards
All around me, the nature rendered just like a fresco art
Painted down the winding road I follow
Anytime I look up for the stars
It's written on the ceiling of my heart

Somehow...it always seems to find me
It not like...I'm constantly looking out
I'm not desperate, searching and aching
It's just that I can't breathe without...

[chorus]

A weakness...for taking in the world
I have to follow...wherever it may go
I need the clear eyed wonder growing all around
It's like water for my soul

[chorus]

I always ran towards the first thing I could find
Never stopped and wondered why I never took my time
Like the devil ran behind me always found another molehill to climb

[chorus]

@musicbykatie going to be super honest, the written lyrics are what I meant to sing and I just super duper didn't want to re-record it everytime I messed something up lol

Darn good playing. Bruce Hornsby feeling all the way. Cool beans and very impressive.
