This So Familiar Feeling Lyrics

Oh, this so familiar feeling

That takes me where I want to go

Yeah, that sweet, sweet special something

That tells me what I want to know

Wishing high and low to find

A place to let my mind unwind

Just tossing nickels down a well

Oh, this so familiar feeling

Ringing through my body like a bell

I never knew just what I needed

A different lens for lookin' through

With the sky as my canvas

I could only capture one inch of you

I once thought I never could be bothered

To free the world from my closed point of view

You showed me a palette of life's colors

To fill in all the dark for brighter hues

Lefty loosey, righty tight

Schoolyard rhymes? Misguided might

Nonsense often bears a catchy tune

I once thought I never could be bothered

Then I saw my shackles tethered to the moon

I never knew just what I needed

A different lens for lookin' through

With the sky as my canvas

I could only capture one inch of you

Sometimes I hear the sound of laughter

Echoing like ripples from a stone

And traced upon the surface of the water

A smiling face no different than my own

One day when I'm old and grey

I think I'll want to stay that way

Rich with all the life I've ever known

Sometimes I hear the sound of laughter

And gently kiss the ground where it was grown
