Clearer Than the Day
A Reverie in Nature's Embrace: Clearer Than the Day
Lyrics
Just beyond what you can see
Describing something beyond immediate sight.
There's a pasture sewn with sunshine
Imagining a field filled with bright sunlight.
Greener than the emerald of the pine
Comparing the greenery to emerald pine.
Just like ribbons in the breeze
Reference to ribbons blowing in the wind.
Cursive murals wash the landscape
Depicting artistic scenes carried by the wind.
Woven by the winds of summertime
Describing wind's artistic influence in summer.
Murmuring low through the valley
Wind sounds murmuring through a valley.
Like a lilting melody
Comparing wind to a lilting melody.
Singing to the feathered grasses
Personifying grasses and their response to wind.
Leaning in listening carefully
Depicting careful listening to nature's sounds.
How the gentle rhythms sway
Describing the gentle sway of rhythms.
And soon carry you away
Anticipating being carried away by the rhythms.
It was clearer than the day
Expressing a moment of absolute clarity.
Although it fell upon me like the roaring thunder
Contrasting clarity with the impact of thunder.
And now I don't know what to say
Feeling speechless in the face of overwhelming clarity.
'Cause every breath is just a moment spent in wonder
Every breath is a moment of awe and wonder.
There upon a canvas white
Imagining indistinct forms in a white canvas sky.
Formless flocks of soaring wings
Visualizing flying flocks with formless shapes.
Tumbling 'round the windows to the sky
Describing movement around windows to the sky.
Always shifting, ever drifting
Highlighting the ever-shifting, drifting nature of shapes.
Nameless shapes that they have taken
Shapes taking on various, unnamed forms.
Occupy the hours passing by
Occupying time with imaginative shapes.
Clovers calm brush your forehead
Evoking a calm feeling with clovers brushing.
And as you linger in a smile
Describing a joyful linger with a smile.
The rays of light beam softly from above
Light rays beaming softly from above.
Harmony covers you as you fall into
Harmony enveloping during a wonderful reverie.
This wonderful reverie
Continuation of the immersive experience.
It was clearer than the day
Reiteration of a moment being clearer than the day.
Although it fell upon me like the roaring thunder
Comparing clarity's impact to roaring thunder.
And now I don't know what to say
Expressing uncertainty in response to clarity.
'Cause every breath is just a moment spent in wonder
Every breath is a moment filled with wonder.
Didn't you have a vision too?
Posing a question about having a visionary experience.
Something marvellous and delightful
Describing the vision as marvelous and delightful.
Now the moment's right
Acknowledging the present moment of realization.
You've taken flight
Taking flight in a sight beyond imagination.
In a sight you could not have dreamed
Experiencing something beyond one's dreams.
"How can it be so lovely?" You ask
Expressing awe at the loveliness of the experience.
"How can it be so sweet?"
Questioning the sweetness of the extraordinary.
It was clearer than the day
Reiteration of a moment being clearer than the day.
Although it fell upon me like the roaring thunder
Comparing clarity's impact to roaring thunder.
And now I don't know what to say
Expressing uncertainty in response to clarity.
'Cause every breath is just a moment spent in wonder
Every breath is a moment filled with wonder.
It was clearer than the day
Reiteration of a moment being clearer than the day.
Although it fell upon me like the roaring thunder
Comparing clarity's impact to roaring thunder.
And now I don't know what to say
Expressing uncertainty in response to clarity.
'Cause every breath is just a moment spent in wonder
Every breath is a moment filled with wonder.
