lyrics

Sitting in a NY City Coffee House
Sitting ‘Cross my friend who speaks his truth all the time
When I’m with him I always feel much more myself.
And right now I am feeling Oh so Divine
And today we are talking ‘bout our obstacles
Anything or anyone who’s in our way
And he is teaching me to ask myself this simple Question
Every minute every second every hour of every day
And that is:

Chorus
Am I Shining? Cause if I’m Shining then….Everything is more than OK.
But, If I’m not shining then I’ll be leaving
No, I won’t wait another day.
And I will tune in And if your not helping me to shine Then
Get The F___ out of my way!


Now I’m back at home in my Midwestern town.
Monkeys jumping on my back in spinal parade.
The light that once shown through my heart has broken down.
Mr. Right is wrong and it’s too little too late.
And then my New York memory comes back to me.
My friend, the chuckle in his throat and twinkle in his eye.
And then I am reminded just to ask my simple question.
And the question isn’t who or what or when or how or why
It’s Simply:

Chorus

It seems to me I’m getting more and more things right.
My smile is getting deeper all the time.
I walk into a dark room and it still feels bright,
All the goodness in my life I’m claiming as mine.
And I never will forget my New York City Friend
That time we shown so bright in that café.
And I will always tune in and I’ll ask my simple question
Every minute, every second, every hour of every day
And that is:

Chorus
