David Wilcox - You Should See The Way It Feels lyrics

It might look to you like nothing much to see But you should see the way it feels to me Here's the sidewalk I used to ride my bike Down this little slope, down my little mountain Start by the driveway spinning up to speed Careful on the gravel 'cause it's nasty on the knees Watch out for the branches on that apple tree Soar down to the corner Well I guess it's not as high as I remember It might not be a mountain after all But it was hard enough to climb And steep enough to coast Long enough to satisfy And fast enough to boast It may look to you like nothing much to see But you should see the way it feels to me Here's the treehouse, I used to spend my night Up this little tree, way up in my mansion Jump to the first brach, walk it upside down Careful of your grip 'cause it's a long way to the ground Better get a handhold before you look around You can see into forever Well I guess it's not as high as I remember It might not be a mansion after all But it was hard enough to climb And safe enough to sleep Big enough to satisfy And home enough for me It may look to you like nothing much to see But you should see the way it feels to me Here's the old man who used to be the child So long ago, not so very long though Look at the memory, think of all those years Looking through the sparkle of the sunlight in the tears Better take another look before you disappear You can see across your lifetime So I look at where I've come and where I'm going I will never be the greatest after all But it was hard enough to climb To get to where I've been Love enough to satisfy And life enough to live I make look to you like nothing much to be But you should see the way it feels to me You should see the way it feels to me
