Dog On My Bed
Harboring Peace: Juniper Tree's Ode to Joy Amid Hard Times
Lyrics
I found this song in the garden
I discovered this song while in the garden.
The year we all were home
During a year when everyone was at home.
I was kneelin pickin flowers
I was kneeling, picking flowers.
Or weeds as you could call 'em
Referring to the picked flowers as weeds.
The wind was playing wind chimes
The wind played wind chimes and touched my skin.
And tickling my skin
Expressing a sensory experience of the moment.
And I said, 'Baby, these are hard times
Addressing a companion, acknowledging tough times.
But we'll find delight in them'
Optimistically finding joy amidst difficulties.
I said, "Baby, these are hard times
Reiterating the acknowledgment of challenging times.
But we'll find delight in them'
Emphasizing the search for delight amid adversity.
Oh sky, oh land
Acknowledging elements of nature – sky and land.
Oh birds overhead
Highlighting the presence of birds overhead.
Oh leaves on the trees
Noticing leaves on the trees, appreciating nature.
Oh my family and friends
Expressing gratitude for family and friends.
I'll try to stay smiling at what's in my hands
Determined to stay positive and smile despite challenges.
Till we can be happy together again
A commitment to happiness once reunited with loved ones.
I found myself in the backyard
Found oneself in the backyard, possibly reflecting.
In the middle of the night
In the middle of the night, contemplating existence.
I was staring at the stars
Staring at stars, seeking inspiration from their light.
Trying to drink their ancient light
Metaphorically trying to absorb ancient wisdom.
Like an ocean or a chorus
Comparing the universe to an ocean or a chorus.
The universe to me
Finding personal significance in the vastness of the cosmos.
Was singing, 'Baby these are hard times
The universe singing, reassuring during hard times.
But you'll always harbor peace'
A promise that peace will be harbored despite challenges.
They said, "Baby these are hard times
Receiving assurance that one possesses all they need.
But you harbor all you need'
Emphasizing self-sufficiency and resilience.
Oh songs, Oh stories
Valuing the power of songs and stories.
Oh dog on my bed
Acknowledging the presence of a dog on the bed.
Oh sun in the morning
Welcoming the sun in the morning with positivity.
My family and friends
Expressing gratitude for family and friends once again.
I'll try to stay smiling at what's in my hands
Commitment to maintaining a positive outlook.
Till we can be happy together again
Anticipation of future happiness with loved ones.
