A Good Thing

Take a look around you
Tell me what you see
Paint me a picture so deep and true

I wanna see the world
The world within your eyes
Carve your story in bark
Everything that's in disguise

And I think of good thing
Yes, I think of a good thing

Put it on my shoulders
I can carry that heavy load
When we feel too little
The sun and the earth grow cold

Let me think of a good thing
Let me think of a good thing

I go to the movies
I've read a book or two
It's been said so many times
But I leave it up to you

To think of a good think
Yes, to think of good thing

Today I feel no sorrow
The sun is up, we're on our way
Sweet illusion takes my breath away

I have to see the world
For there must be some kind of paradise
Carve it in my bark out of disguise

Ohhhh – I think it's a good thing!
Ohhhh – I think it's a good thing!

Carve your painting in my bark
Everything that's in disguise

And tend to look away

Tell me stories of a sunken world
We're far from home

But it's all, all over now
Yes, it's all, all over now

Take a look around you

Today I feel no sorrow
The sun is up and I'm on my way
Come and see my garden

When I felt so little
They told me the day will come
When you can see

Cause we feel too little and think too
Much (feel too little and talk too much)
And tend to look away

I won't keep on waiting for that day to come
For it is up to me

I ain't gonna make a movie
I ain't gonna write a book
Before
By too many, come and take a look

But today I feel no sorrow
Whatever is gonna come my way
I kick off my shoes,
There ain't no time to lose
My friends are waiting

Sing me songs that used to fill my ear
One thousand years ago

And I want you to be you

Don't you keep me hanging – I'm only yours
And I've been waiting far too long
Tell me about the sunshine
Tell me about the rain
Paint me a picture so deep and true
So I forget about where I am

Sing me songs that filled my ear
One thousand years ago
The children used to sing them when
The

Come a little closer, lend me your ear
And I reveal you who I really am
I used to be strong one

Look into the blue sky
Please tell me what you see
Paint me a picture so deep and true
Don't you leave it up to me
