Religion

(álbum: Memos From Maine - 2022)

Never busy on a Sunday
Never stepped foot in a church
But I loved the painted windows
And the music I overheard

Wasn't looking for something
Didn't need to be saved
Started paying attention
I found god in the way

The sun always comes in the morning
No matter how dark the night's been
And it all seemed dawn without warning
How holy this little life is
Guess I found religion
Sitting in the kitchen
Oh lord, I've been waiting so long
Oh lord, I've been waiting so long

I don't need a place to worship
I don't need a real big purpose
I can sit here watching flowers grow
Just to know
The bees have a place to go

When the sun shines in the morning
After the darkness of night
Dawn seems to come without warning
Everything bathed pink light
Guess I found religion
Sitting in the kitchen
Oh lord, I've been waiting so long
Oh lord, I've been waiting so long

I've been waiting all my life
Just to wake up and be fine
Not to feel the heavy weight
Of all the faults I have to date
Pour a coffee try a smile
Watch the birds a little while
They sing love songs to the sun
So should I, at least just one

Guess I found religion
Sitting in the kitchen
Oh lord, I've been waiting so long
Oh lord, I've been waiting so long
