David Lingabee Songs & Songwriting

I have started again to love all people,
Without a euphoric drug to calm the noise,
To love myself and others was all I wished for,
It’s nice to feel no urge to change my poise.

I see the good and love in almost everyone,
For those I can’t I can always take more time,
The choice is mine again of who I’m being with,
A long hard trek through many lifetimes completes the climb.

It’s easy pretending niceness with those around you,
It’s common to always smile and show good cheer,
Sometimes missing is the being when showing kindness,
An incessant urge to sync with life becomes so clear.

There is a rightness and a goodness inside of everyone,
There is a calmness that lives within all those you see,
If you become willing to let these qualities rise to the surface,
It becomes more easier for yourself to simply be.

There is a willingness within your world that’s always living,
If you just ask it to appear, it probably will,
It makes a self determined game of what you’re doing,
It’s suddenly safe to be yourself and enjoy the thrill.

I see the good and love in almost everyone,
For those I can’t I can always take more time,
The choice is mine again of who I’m being with,
A long hard trek through many lifetimes completes the climb.
