From the recording Singing My Heart Out

Lyrics

There’s a dark eyed Junco
Just outside my window and he is
Singing his heart out
Though the sky is dark
And the fields deep with snow, he’s still
Singing his heart out
 
Oh, he’s breathing in time with God
And his voice cuts through the morning fog
Oh, his song is all he’s got and he is
Singing his heart out
 
A little girl walks to the bus stop
Just up my street and she is
Singing her heart out
Though her dress is dirty
And her mama screams, she’s still
Singing her heart out
 
Oh, she’s breathing in time with God
Her dreams don’t feel so far off.
Oh, her song is all she’s got and she is
Singing her heart out
 
Though my days here are short
And my mind thick with troubles
I’m singing my heart out
Cause, it’s the only way I know to grow
Flowers from this rubble – when I’m
Singing my heart out.
 
Oh, like breathing in time with God
As the sun burns down that old morning fog
Oh, my song is all I’ve got and I am
Singing my heart out.
Oh, my song is all I’ve got and I am
Singing my heart out.
