Verse
Gm
Do you think the stars know,
F
That they’re seen from so far down below?
Gm
Or when the warm wind blows,
F
Does it tell the grass to grow?
[Verse 2]
Gm
Why do you think the birds sing?
F
Do they think that someone’s listening?
Gm
Or do they sing,
F
To try and chase away the snow?
[Verse 3]
Gm
And if the stars hid from the night,
F
Do you think that someone would realize?
Gm
The light had died,
F
Or would they even know?
[Verse 4]
Gm
And if a silence filled the air,
F
Do you think that anyone would even care?
Gm
Would they be aware,
F
Of the mounting snow?
[Chorus 1]
Gm F
We never notice all the green around us until the season’s passed.
Gm F
We never long for the world to slow down until it goes too fast,
Gm F
If everything plays a grander part in a fate we’ll never meet,
Gm F
Is my destiny to fade away, have a goal I’ll never reach?
Gm F
Gm I incomplete?
Gm F Gm F
[Verse 5]
Gm
Do you wonder if the snow knows,
F
It leaves behind a world with room to grow,
Gm
Or when the sun dips low,
F
It gives the moon a chance to glow.
[Verse 6]
Gm
Do you wonder why the sky cries,
F
Through its tears it brings forth greener life,
Gm
Or when it cries,
F
Does it even know?
[Chorus 2]
Gm F
We never listen for the songs around us until the sound is still.
Gm F
We never see what our life is worth, and perhaps we never will...
Gm F
If everything plays a grander part in a fate we’ll never meet,
Gm F
Is my destiny to fade away, have a goal I’ll never reach?
Gm F
Gm I incomplete?
[Bridge]
Gm F
And though the sky still cries, and the flowers die,
Gm F
The sun can’t shine if the rains don’t pass by,
Gm D# F
Flowers die but still they find new life.
Gm D# F
And though I may not shine as bright as the stars.
Gm D# F
I refuse to let my fate be set by my scars.
Gm D# F
I’ll carry on, and I’ll do it just for me.
Gm D# F
I’ll be complete.
[Chorus 1]
Gm F
We never notice all the green around us until the season’s passed.
Gm F
We never long for the world to slow down until it goes too fast,
Gm F
If everything plays a grander part in a fate I’ll never meet,
Gm F
Is my destiny to fade away, have a goal I’ll never reach?
[Chorus 3]
Gm F
We never listen for the songs around us until the sound is still.
Gm F
We never see what our life is worth, and perhaps we never will...
Gm F
If everything plays a grander part in a fate we’ll never meet,
Gm F
I will not let my days slip away, I will rise up on two feet.
Gm F
And I’ll be complete.
