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