lyrics

Deep in the woods in the south of this land
Lived a girl with a dream who was hatching a plan
She bought a guitar and she wrote a few songs
And wherever she played they would all singalong
She pedalled her tunes ‘round the clubs and the bars
Playing for drinks or the tips in a jar
Then out of the dark came a sharply dressed man
With the promise of fortune and fame in his hand

Come and sing with me
'bout the heart that I wear on my sleeve
Come and sing with me
Its the reason that I live and breathe
No matter the voice, no matter the mood
No matter who’s higher or lower than you
If your soul is in need of the sun or the moon
Then drop all your worries and follow my tune

Interviews, radio, stadiums played
Albums that sold by the thousand a day
Fan clubs and limos and photos to sign
But there in her hand was barely a dime
When lights were turned down and the crowds had all gone
Back in her room with the radio on
A song from the past started filling the room
And she knew in her heart what she had to do

So she took the bus home
With just her guitar
Back to the place where her people left more than just tips in a jar

Come and sing with me
'bout the heart that I wear on my sleeve
Come and sing with me
Its the reason that I live and breathe
No matter the voice, no matter the mood
No matter who’s higher or lower than you
If you’re soul is in need of the sun or the moon
Then drop all your worries and follow my tune…
If you’re soul is in need of the sun or the moon
Then drop all your worries and follow my tune
