David Lingabee Songs & Songwriting

Moments NOW!
See in time,
Future things
not from my mind.

I am NOW!,
Staying here,
Leaving not,
I am my peer.

No need to look,
No need to search,
Or hoping for
that sudden lurch.

Chorus
I wish for you,
Some peace and calm,
May you now chant
your favorite psalm.
______

There’s nothing much
that lays about,
Material,
Such endless doubt.

Solving what
we didn’t need,
Something to do,
We all agreed.

How boring seems
Those things to do,
Timeless lures
distracting you.

Chorus
I wish for you,
Some peace and calm,
May you now chant
your favorite psalm.
______

Bridge
When will we be
Ourselves again,
Immortal beings
that never end.
_____

Scoffers rant
What they can’t see
Their urge to squash
what cannot be.

They live in time,
Work for the mob,
When they go home
They quietly sob.

Don’t upset
their fragile game,
Ignore their rants
They’re all the same.

Nothing new,
They see a wall,
They say no hope
to trap us all.

Chorus
I wish for you,
Some peace and calm,
May you now chant
your favorite psalm.
______

But here we are,
We hope and pray,
A melting pot
in any day.

Getting on,
With those around,
We hope and pray
for calming sounds.

I truly want
A better life,
Without the noise
and all the strife.

Chorus
I wish for you,
Some peace and calm,
May you now chant
your favorite psalm.
______

When will we be
Ourselves again,
Immortal beings
that never end.
