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