Corner of the Sky from PIPPIN

 I love this song,   i love the lyrics,  i can so relate to being lost at times ..... many times.....

Everything has its season

Everything has its time
Show me a reason and I'll soon show you a rhyme
Cats fit on the windowsill
Children fit in the snow
Why do I feel I don't fit in anywhere I go

then i would come to my senses and realize that i will just have to look for that special place,   that place where i should be....  that place where i can ramble if i'm a river,   or soar if i'm an eagle.....
Rivers belong where they can ramble
Eagles belong where they can fly
I've got to be where my spirit can run free
Got to find my corner of the sky

and this is not just for me but for every single creature.....  

Every man has his daydreams
Every man has his goal
People like the way dreams have
Of sticking to the soul
Thunderclouds have their lightning
Nightingales have their song
And don't you see I want my life to be 
Something more than long....

Everyone can find, their corner in the sky....

Rivers belong where they can ramble
Eagles belong where they can fly
I've got to be where my spirit can run free
Got to find my corner of the sky

Thank you Stephen Schwartz for this very beautiful song  with the fantastic melody.    I have not seen Pippin yet  and i am grateful to Youtube for making some of the songs and performances accessible.
