I was imagining the Carolina skyline as the treeline, not a city skyline.
Was also experimenting with a different rhyme scheme.
lyrics
I want to be
as still as the trees
find the calm, a balm to soothe
the hurts inside of me
I want to run
like a river in the sun
to finally know the flow of time
when my own is done
I want to feel
wood instead of steel
stone under feet, not a concrete path
my perception of real
I want to take wing
like the dove as it sings
ooooh ooooh
the joy that it brings
Carolina skyline
mountains and trees
let me get lost in you
Carolina skyline
means more to me
let me get lost in you
Carolina skyline
mountains to sea
let me get lost in you
I want to hide
my soul deep inside
the heart of a tree to see the winding
vistas so wide
I want to live
in all you have to give
the salt of the earth, rebirth in me
the means to forgive
Carolina skyline
mountains and trees
let me get lost in you
Carolina skyline
means more to me
let me get lost in you
Carolina skyline
mountains to sea
let me get lost in you
