🌳 You're Allowed to Rest Like the Trees in the Shade 🍃 | A Playlist for Quiet Hours

You smiled and the silence broke Like sunlight through the morning smoke Bare feet on the dewy grass Time moves slow but slips so fast You leaned on me shy and close Heart spoke soft in whispered notes No music but the breeze and trees Still your voice was a melody It was the start of something right Like the stars that lit our night No words could ever quite explain How love begins with just a name One strum, one look, one endless hush We wrote our song with strings of us You traced your dreams upon my hand Like we were drawing in the sand Every touch a brand new chord Telling stories never heard It was the start of something right Like the stars that lit our night No words could ever quite explain How love begins with just a name One strum, one look, one endless hush We wrote our song with strings of us If I forget the world one day Let the sound of us replay In each fret and in each tone You'll be the only song I've known It was the start of something right Still feeling when I hold you tight No need for anything but this A first romance sealed with a kiss One strum, one look, one endless hush We wrote our song with strings of us We sat beneath the quiet sky The stars were painting lullabies I had a thousand things to say But let the silence drift and stay I watched her smile, her hand so still The night was soft, the air was chill She looked at the moon instead While I was right there by her side I whispered love inside my head And watched the starlight in her eyes She never knew the things I meant She looked at the moon instead I brushed the sleeve that touched her skin A moment lost beneath the wind She told me dreams of far off days I laughed and let my heart give way I spoke in knots, in gentle breath Afraid to break, the stillness left She looked at the moon instead While I was right there by her side I whispered love inside my head And watched the starlight in her eyes She never knew the things I meant She looked at the moon instead Maybe someday she'll recall A quiet boy, a summer's fall But even if she never sees I loved her soft and silently She looked at the moon instead While I was right there by her side I whispered love inside my head And watched the starlight in her eyes She never knew the things I meant She looked at the moon instead Sunlight drips across the day Laughing leaves that slip away Her bare feet on dusty roads Carry songs the river told In every glance, a golden spark A summer sky within her heart Summer in her eyes Morning dreams in cloudless skies Every laugh, a tender breeze Dancing through the willow trees Picnic clothes and dandelions Fields of fireflies in twilight Songs we hummed on porch swing nights Still echo through her bright July In every glance, a golden spark A summer sky within her heart Summer in her eyes Morning dreams in cloudless skies Every laugh, a tender breeze Dancing through the willow trees Even when the autumn calls Her summer heart remembers all Summer in her eyes Morning dreams in cloudless skies Every laugh, a tender breeze Dancing through the willow trees Even when the autumn calls Her summer heart remembers all Summer in her eyes Morning dreams in cloudless skies Every laugh, a tender breeze Dancing through the willow trees Sunlight dances on the streams Shimmers softly in my dreams Branches sway in whispered sound Nature's hymn where peace is found Footsteps fade on mossy ground Every heartbeat slows right down Clouds drift slow across the sky In their arms my worries lie Whispers of the breeze they sing Wrap me softly with their wind A quiet day, a gentle tune Underneath the silver moon River hums a soothing flow Breath of earth it starts to grow Birdsong scattered in the trees Music carried on the seas The world is louder but I stay In this calm where dreams delay Let the forest take the lead Show me what my soul might need Whispers of the breeze they sing Wrap me softly with their wings A quiet day, a gentle tune Underneath the silver moon Some songs don't need to shine too bright They echo softly in the night Like stories whispered just for me Wrapped in a quiet melody I heard a line that knew my name It wasn't loud, it wasn't flame But something in the words it chose Felt like a place I used to know They say it's just a song, a sound But why does silence feel so loud? When music hums where tears reside It sings the parts we try to hide It's not the beauty of the tune It's the way the lyrics bloom In joy they wear a yellow sun But in my chest they turn to blue And when the world is turned away I start to hear what they must say There's magic in a line well placed That feels like it belongs to grace You smile at first, it warms the day Then later it just fades to grey And when I'm low I play it back Each word now heavy leaving cracks I never knew a simple rhyme Could pull me back to that lost time It's not the beauty of the tune It's the way the lyrics bloom In joy they wear a yellow sun But in my chest they turn to blue And when the world is turned away I start to hear what they must say So sing to me those quiet lines The ones that echo through the blinds Not for their sound but what they knew The songs that taught me to be true Velvet clouds and cotton rose Every breeze a place it goes I take a step, the world feels wide Waltzing with the sky as guide In the quiet of the sky I just laugh and close my eyes Every cloud a sweet surprise Dancing light across my mind Footsteps play along the breeze Memory sways in melodies I hum a tune you used to know Soft and easy, free to go In the quiet of the sky I just laugh and close my eyes Every star a tiny song That keeps me humming all day long Round and round the daylight spins Washing out the might-have-beens I find your voice in little things Like morning light or bird that sings In the quiet of the sky I feel peace and I know why You and I, we had our time Now I'm waltzing in the shine You smiled and the silence broke Like sunlight through the morning smoke Bare feet on the dewy grass Time moves slow but slips so fast You leaned on me shy and close Heart spoke soft in whispered notes No music but the breeze and trees Still your voice was a melody It was the start of something right Like the stars that lit our night No words could ever quite explain How love begins with just a name One strum, one look, one endless hush We wrote our song with strings of us You traced your dreams upon mine Like we were drawing in the sand Every touch a brand new chord Telling stories never heard It was the start of something right Like the stars that lit our night No words could ever quite explain How love begins with just a name One strum, one look, one endless hush We wrote our song with strings of us If I forget the world one day Let the sound of us replay In each fret and in each tone You'll be the only song I've known It was the start of something right Still feeling when I hold you tight No need for anything but this A first romance sealed with a kiss One strum, one look, one endless hush We wrote our song with strings of us We sat beneath the quiet sky The stars were painting lullabies I had a thousand things to say But let the silence drift and stay I watched her smile, her hand so still The night was soft, the air was chill She looked at the moon instead While I was right there by her side I whispered love inside my head And watched the starlight in her eyes She never knew the things I meant She looked at the moon instead I brushed the sleeve that touched her skin A moment lost beneath the wind She told me dreams of far off days I laughed and let my heart give way I spoke in knots, in gentle breath Afraid to break the stillness left She looked at the moon instead While I was right there by her side I whispered love inside my head And watched the starlight in her eyes She never knew the things I meant She looked at the moon instead Maybe someday she'll recall A quiet boy, a summer's fall But even if she never sees I loved her soft and silently She looked at the moon instead While I was right there by her side I whispered love inside my head And watched the starlight in her eyes She never knew the things I meant She looked at the moon instead Sunlight drips across the day Laughing leaves that slip away Her bare feet on dusty roads Carry songs the river told In every glance a golden spark A summer sky within her heart Summer in her eyes Morning dreams in cloudless skies Every laugh a tender breeze Dancing through the willow trees Picnic clothes and dandelions Fields of fireflies in twilight Songs we hummed on porch swing nights Still echo through her bright July In every glance a golden spark A summer sky within her heart Summer in her eyes Morning dreams in cloudless skies Every laugh a tender breeze Dancing through the willow trees Even when the autumn calls Her summer heart remembers all Summer in her eyes Morning dreams in cloudless skies Every laugh a tender breeze Dancing through the willow trees Even when the autumn calls Her summer heart remembers all Summer in her eyes Morning dreams in cloudless skies Every laugh a tender breeze Dancing through the willow trees Sunlight dances on the streams Shimmers softly in my dreams Branches sway in whispered sound Nature's hymn where peace is found Footsteps fade on mossy ground Every heartbeat slows right down Clouds drift slow across the sky In their arms my worries lie Whispers of the breeze they sing Wrap me softly with their wind A quiet day, a gentle tune Underneath the silver moon River hums a soothing flow Breath of earth it starts to grow Birdsong scattered in the trees Music carried on the seas The world is louder but I stay In this calm where dreams delay Let the forest take the lead Show me what my soul might need Whispers of the breeze they sing Wrap me softly with their wings A quiet day, a gentle tune Underneath the silver moon Some songs don't need to shine too bright They echo softly in the night Like stories whispered just for me Wrapped in a quiet melody I heard a line that knew my name It wasn't loud, it wasn't flame But something in the words it chose Felt like a place I used to know They say it's just a song, a sound But why does silence feel so loud? When music hums where tears reside It sings the parts we try to hide It's not the beauty of the tune It's the way the lyrics bloom In joy they wear a yellow sun But in my chest they turn to blue And when the world is turned away I start to hear what they must say There's magic in a line well placed That feels like it belongs to grace You smile at first, it warms the day Then later it just fades to grey And when I'm low I play it back Each word now heavy leaving cracks I never knew a simple rhyme Could pull me back to that lost time It's not the beauty of the tune It's the way the lyrics bloom In joy they wear a yellow sun But in my chest they turn to blue And when the world is turned away I start to hear what they must say So sing to me those quiet lines The ones that echo through the blinds Not for their sound but what they knew The songs that taught me to be true Velvet clouds and cotton rose Every breeze, a place it goes I take a step, the world feels wide Waltzing with the sky as guide In the quiet of the sky I just laugh and close my eyes Every cloud a sweet surprise Dancing light across my mind Footsteps play along the breeze Memory sways in melodies I hum a tune you used to know Soft and easy, free to go In the quiet of the sky I just laugh and close my eyes Every star a tiny song That keeps me humming all day long Round and round the daylight spins Washing out the might have-beens I find your voice in little things Like morning light or bird that sings In the quiet of the sky I feel peace and I know why You and I, we had our time Now I'm waltzing in the shine
