Embracing Life's Canvas: A Journey of Gratitude with Oh Great Sea
Lyrics
Got to leave work a little earlier than usual today
Expressing the need to leave work earlier than usual.
Came home to wife and my little at play
Returning home to find the spouse and child playing.
Lets go for a ride on our bicycles
Suggesting a plan to go for a bicycle ride.
All wrapped up tight out in the windy cold
Describing the preparation for the ride in cold weather.
We"ll go down to the point and watch
Heading to a specific location ("the point") to watch something.
To the sound of the ospreys and the red tailed hawk
Anticipating the experience of nature, mentioning ospreys and red-tailed hawks.
Grateful, I am Grateful
Expressing gratitude for the current moment.
To be here, To be here with you
Being thankful for the companionship.
I have, always dreamed that I
Stating a long-held dream of being in the current situation.
Would be sitting here with you
Expressing the joy of sitting together and watching the sky.
Watching this painted sky
Describing a shared activity of throwing a line into the water.
Throw a line out in the water, watch the creek roll by
Discussing the day, sharing both highs and lows.
Our baby boy is laughing, as I look you in the eye
Referencing a specific location with cedar trees.
Talk about our day, share the highs share the lows
Dreaming about the future together.
On our Mexican blanket, where the cedar trees
Highlighting the interconnectedness of their hearts.
We'll dream about the future, and all thats still to come
Reiteration of gratitude for the present moment.
And our hearts are interwoven like the canopy above
Expressing the enduring dream of being together.
Grateful, I am Grateful
Repeating the expression of gratitude.
To be here, To be here with you
Being thankful for the shared experience with a loved one.
I have, always dreamed that I
Reiterating the long-held dream of being together.
Would be sitting here with you
Expressing joy in watching the painted sky together.
Watching this painted sky
Reflecting on the transient nature of beautiful moments.
Then a drop fell from the clouds, I wished this moment would last forever
Expressing the intention to carry the memory forward.
But I knew that it was time, so we rode home in the rain together
Committing to singing a song every day as a tribute to the memory.
Though our moment there is over, I'll take this memory wherever I go
Reiterating gratitude for the current moment.
And everyday I wake up, I'll sing this song because I know
Expressing thankfulness for the shared experience and the loved one.
Grateful, I am Grateful
Concluding with gratitude for the companionship and shared moments.
To be here, To be here with you
Expressing thankfulness for being present with a loved one.
I have, always dreamed that I
Reiterating the enduring dream of being together.
Would be sitting here with you
Expressing joy in watching the painted sky with a loved one.
Watching this painted sky
Concluding with the theme of gratitude for the shared experience.
