song for the countryside

Passenger

Ooh, ooh

Can you hear the countryside singing? (ooh)
Can you see the green shoots and humble beginnings? (ooh)
Cracking and blossoming
popping and springing up from the soil in the ground

Can you feel the sun on your face? (ooh)
Warming the cracks and the lines
that life placed on you, (ooh)
Air so sweet it s a treat just to taste it?
Don t waste it or wish it away (ooh)
Ah, you ve been stuck inside
your shoebox for so long (ooh)
Won t you step outside and hear the countryside song?

Ooh, ooh

Can you hear the countryside singing? (ooh)
Can you see the spiders
and the webs that they re spinning? (can you see?)
Pale as milk, shining like silk
Glistening in the morning rain

Have you seen the candy floss clouds? (ooh)
Blooming white pillows that billow so proud (ooh)
T?ll me the shapes and th? faces you see
Now you re free to stare up at the sky (ooh)
Ah, you ve been stumbling
through the silence for so long (oo-oo-ooo)

Won t you clear your voice and sing the countryside song?

Ah-ah

Let it open your mind, (oo-ah-aah)
Heaven knows it s time
To feel the wind blowing, (ooh)
To see the stars glowing, (ooh)
And the silver moonlight on the trees
To feel the change coming
Like wild waters running
It s time to set yourself free
