If I Let It

about

This song came from a dark place I was in some years ago. It's about worrying over things you can't control.

lyrics

In the twilight
There's a fox who roams a field
Thinking of nothing
But finding her next meal
She doesn't fret about tomorrow
She just gets it

In a tall tree
There's a bird who sings a song
He doesn't practice
Just sings the whole day long
He doesn't care if he's in tune
He just gets it

I wish that I could just get it
Instead I try to force it
And then I just regret it
Maybe I'm making it
Harder than it is
If I let it
Would I just get it?

In a lifetime
There is only so much time
But some days each minute
Feels like an endless climb
Why do I fret about tomorrow?
I don't get it

I wish that I could just get it
Instead I try to force it
And then I just regret it
Maybe I'm making it
Harder than it is
If I let it
Would I just get it?

Maybe I'm making it
Harder than it is
If I let it
Would I just . . . get it?
