Walk a While
Journey of Shared Stories: Embracing Life's Magic
Lyrics
Looking out the window on a rainy afternoon
Contemplating life while observing the rain through a window
Letting my mind wander and my fingers find a tune
Allowing thoughts to flow freely and creating music with fingers
Thinking back on all the friends that I met along the way
Reflecting on friends encountered during life's journey
The ones I might see down the road and the ones who slipped away
Considering friends to meet in the future and those lost along the way
But we walked a while together with a story or a song
Sharing experiences, stories, or songs during a collective journey
and the magic of whatever came along
Embracing the magic of unforeseen moments and events
I've travelled all around the world and a thing I've always found
Observing a universal truth that kindness (smile) opens doors
is that a door will open easier to a smile than to a frown
Highlighting the importance of shared burdens over solitary struggles
and a burden shared is lighter than when you're struggling on your own
Emphasizing the uplifting power of laughter and camaraderie
and voices raised in laughter can chase a chill out of your bones
Stressing the therapeutic effect of joyous voices dispelling coldness
so let's walk a while together with a story or a song
Inviting others to continue the journey together with shared narratives
and the magic of whatever comes along
Encouraging openness to the enchantment of unexpected experiences
Whichever God you pray to, or if you pray to none
Acknowledging diverse beliefs and the shared destination in life
it's the same place that we're headed for, when all is said and done
Expressing the equality of the ultimate destination for everyone
there's nothing you take with you, just what you leave behind
Emphasizing the transient nature of material possessions
in the hearts of those who care for you when you come into their minds
Highlighting the lasting impact on others through memories and care
so let's walk a while together with a story or a song
Reiterating the invitation to share stories and songs on the journey
and the magic of whatever comes along
Encouraging an appreciation for the magic found in life's surprises
