Wide As the Prairie Skies

Liner Notes

My pre-work for my take on the #fakeit challenge. For my final version, see here. In this challenge, all participants use the same lead sheet provided by @metalfoot but make up their own song. https://fawm.org/forums/3568

#piano #pop did I just write a pop song?

Lyrics

[Chorus] It's time to open up my heart Wide as the prairie skies It's time to look at the world With some brand new eyes

Too long I've been sitting in the darkness And I've needed light It's time to open up my heart Wide as the prairie skies

[Verse] I'm turning off the TV news I'm shutting down the mobile phone All this doomscrolling's the death of me It just makes me feel alone

I'm stepping out the front door I'm going to breathe some fresh air See the good things happening around me It's time I learned to care

[Chorus]

[Verse] I'm going to walk through nature I'll just enjoy it cause its there Appreciate the small things around me Cause there's glory everywhere

I'm going to eat some good food I'm going to learn to be healthy And care for others like I should now Find pleasure in simplicity

[Chorus]

[Bridge] It might not change the world But it can change my mind And that's the kind of change That's awful nice to find

[Chorus]
