I don’t need the answer to know this feels like life.

Lyrics

Verse 1

Walking where the tall grass Leans into the breeze Sunlight paints the gravel road In shades of honey leaves Somewhere far a church bell Carries through the air Nothing asks for anything Everything is there

Chorus

Maybe it’s the sunlight Maybe it’s the sky Maybe it’s the way the clouds Go drifting slowly by Maybe it’s the silence That settles deep inside I don’t need the answer To know this feels like life

Verse 2

Swallows trace their circles High above the wheat A distant tractor hums along Like an old familiar dream Every little moment Seems to understand Happiness can find you Without reaching for your hand

Chorus

Maybe it’s the morning Maybe it’s the rain that’s gone Maybe it’s the open fields I’ve carried all along Maybe it’s the breathing Of this quiet afternoon Nothing has to happen Nothing has to bloom

Bridge

Some days ask for reasons Some never need a name The heart can know the answer Long before the mind can say

Final Chorus

Maybe it’s tomorrow Maybe it’s today Maybe all we’ve ever had Was hidden in plain sight The wind keeps moving softly Across the amber grain And somehow I leave lighter Though nothing really changed
