Song for the Countryside

Lyrics

[BACKGROUND VOCALS] Ooh, ooh [PASSENGER, BACKGROUND VOCALS] Can you hear the countryside singing? (ooh) Can you see the green shoots and humble beginnings? (ooh) Cracking and blossoming, popping and springing up from the soil in the ground Can you feel the sun on your face? (ooh) Warming the cracks and the lines that life placed on you, (ooh) Air so sweet it's a treat just to taste it? Don't waste it or wish it away (ooh) Ah, you've been stuck inside your shoebox for so long (ooh) Won't you step outside and hear the countryside song? [BACKGROUND VOCALS] Ooh, ooh [JACK WOLFE, BACKGROUND VOCALS, BOTH] Can you hear the countryside singing? (ooh) Can you see the spiders and the webs that they're spinning? (can you see?) Pale as milk, shining like silk Glistening in the morning rain Have you seen the candy floss clouds? (ooh) Blooming white pillows that billow so proud (ooh) Tеll me the shapes and thе faces you see Now you're free to stare up at the sky (ooh) Ah, you've been stumbling through the silence for so long (oo-oo-ooo) Won't you clear your voice and sing the countryside song? [BACKGROUND VOCALS] Ah-ah [PASSENGER & JACK WOLFE, BACKGROUND VOCALS] Let it open your mind, (oo-ah-aah) Heaven knows it's time To feel the wind blowing, (ooh) To see the stars glowing, (ooh) And the silver moonlight on the trees To feel the change coming Like wild horses running It's time to set yourself free
