Another song written as part of the 50 90 song writing challenge. Something a little different for me. Wonderful lyrics written by Liz Petty.
Comments as always are appreciated.

Lyrics:

V1
every stone tells a story
every pebble holds a poem
every cloud gives a dreamer
reason for thoughts to roam

Every color of a rainbow
And every ray of the sun
can teach us something
if we stop....
instead of run...

C
so stop and smell the roses
on every journey you are on
and listen....
listen closely
listen closely

V2
every lake knows a secret
every river sings along
every star gives a lover
reason for hearts beating strong

Every petal of a flower
and every blade of grass
can teach us something
if we stop...
don't go quickly past...

C
so stop and smell the roses
on every journey you are on
and listen.....
listen closely
and listen.....
listen closely


to hear the muse's song
yes listen....
