Spirit Of The Forest – A Song

This song is a collaboration with singer/songwriter Casey Finlay. One of these days I’ll put the music up online.

Spirit Of The Forest
© G. Dutton/C. Finlay 2007

Sunlight and shadow in a green forest tall.
I went into the woodlands for an afternoon stroll.
Down along a pathway into the forest deep,
all around a silence in the afternoon heat.

Dappled and dancing, oh the play of light.

The power of the silence casts its own spell.
The spirit of the forest lingers here still.

Dappled and dancing, oh the play of light.
The branches are waving, oh the play of light.

The silence is broken. It may never have been.
The sounds of clear water in a nearby stream.
And wings up in the tree tops and a soft bird call.
Sunlight and shadow in a green forest tall.

Dappled and dancing, oh the play of light.
The branches are waving, oh the play of light.
Ever, ever changing… Think I’ll stay awhile…
