Story Behind The Song
One day, I was playing around with augmented chords and I came up with the chromatic sequence in G major that opens the song. That led into the jazzy G minor/C major/G major pattern that forms the chorus. I loved the contrast and kept played the 2 pattern

Lyrics
Love - let it flow
Faith - watch it grow
Fear - let it go and be free.
Living is an art
You've got to pick up your brush and paint what you want
Giving is a joy
When you love what you give and give what you love
Breathing fills you
When your head's in the air and not in the ground
Feelings are free
When you can be your own truth and truthfully feel
Try this trip and try to recognise you.
Love - let it flow
Faith - watch it grow
Fear - let it go and you'll see
That living is a bore
When you don't know who you are or where you are going
Giving is a chore
When you've got nothing to give but material things
Breathing kills you
When your head's in the ground and not in the air
Feelings are things you've only read about
So what do they mean?
Try but you will never recognise ... you.
Love - let it flow
Faith - watch it grow
Fear - let it go and be free.
