Story Behind The Song

This song was actually written while thinking about a "ski listing" on Taxi---I wanted to stay up there (in my mind) with the beautiful view, the joyful rush of the skiing, Nature all around, etc., but was bombarded by all the "stuff" going on all around me. This song is a direct result of that experience!

Song Description

Every kind of experience is thrown at you in life: the great and not so great---this song explores the metamorphasis.

Lyrics

Grow

Whoa, yeah---
V1 Every thing I fear
Every time I feel like a little child
Every time there's butterflies in my stomach
I Grow...

V2 When the tears are pouring down my face
The trials, tribulations I slay, the dragons
The stuff I shy away from
I Grow...

Br: Yeah, the hateful boring drone
The stuff I step in
Yeah, you better believe it all helps me
Grow...

V3: Every time I am frustrated and angry
Every time I feel small and alone
Every time I have to step out of my comfort zone
I Grow...

Br2: Every time I get to the top of the mountain
And it's time to ski down
Every time excitement to call somebody
It's reassurance I've found
Yeah, every time I play my red 2K guitar
Every time I wear my heart on my sleeve
Yeah, every time I meet my Maker
Yeah, every time I get down to my knees
A Passion Grows...

V4: Every want I know
Every time I flow
The river inside rises and goes higher
I Grow...
Every time I Grow...Oh---
Every time I Grow...

Ending: One more time, I'm lifted up, yeah
I've got desire and lustre
And my power grows
And my wisdom grows
And I've got dominion now
Oh, yeah, I---
Baby, you've got to believe
I Grow...
Grow...
