The Songwriter

Linking with Imaginary Gardens for The Tuesday Platform

~The singer sets the song to flight, but it is the songwriter that gives it it's wings.~


Raise your voice friend
raise it high
let the notes reach
from dawn to night
like a sparrow up in the sky
it has a song and it has to fly
it carries a story under it's wings
and pays it forward when it sings

*******

Raise your voice child
sing it loud
live your dreams
and live them proud
like a sparrow up in the sky
it has a song and it has to fly
it carries a story under it's wings
and pays it forward when it sings

*******
Raise your voice dear
cry out true and strong
give love meaning
give it song
like a sparrow up in the sky
it has a song and it has to fly
it carries a story under it's wings
and pays it forward when it sings



Dedicated to Amber Whitworth and Vicki Rogers, two beautiful songwriters I know and love.
