Reflections On The Mirth Of Creativity lyrics

Woke up this morning there was something dawning on me

Something I'd never seen, someone I'd never been

Came down for coffee and I could not find

Where I'd left my troubled mind

Opened the windows and the day blew in

It was fresh and new and it caressed my skin

It set me reeling, it was such a feeling

That it made me smile for the first time in a long while

But don't ask me how

I just don't know

Don't ask me why

I've got nothing to do but smile

And when I hit the street, felt light on my feet

Like if I tried, I might just fly

And every single face I see

Had a smile for me like I was royalty or something

The sun was shining on the avenue

And the shadows knew just what to do

They kinda parted as I walked on by

And the clouds went off to some other part of the sky

But don't ask me how

I just don't know

Don't ask me why

I've got nothing to do but smile

When I walked up to a traffic light

And to my delight it was set just right

I didn't even have to break my pace

It was like I owned the whole damn place

And all the birds were singing in the trees

I was hearing some amazing melodies

Before I knew it was whistling along

So I sat right down and wrote this song

But don't ask me how

I just don't know

Don't ask me why

I've got nothing to do but smile
