Tilt Your Chair Back

Tilt your chair back Look up at the trees, let your hair down Listen to the breeze, breathe this moment Down into your knees Let your worries for tomorrow fall amongst the leaves With your best loved mug Full of quittin' time tea, sip the present Gift-wrapped from eternity Lay a treasure Deep into your mind To dust off on a grey day when you need a ray of shine When your weary shoulders start to slouchin' From holding all that weight that you can't see When there ain't a steady foot to stand on And you're too quick to thinkin' on your feet When your smile fades When your heart lacks Toss your carе down Tilt your chair back There's a time for working Timе to get away, there's time for bailin' Time for rollin' in the hay Time for stealing A little time back from the Sun Borrow from tomorrow 'fore tomorrow has begun And when your weary shoulders start to slouchin' From holding all that weight that you can't see And when there ain't a steady foot to stand on And you're too quick to thinkin' on your feet When your smile fades When your heart lacks Toss your care down Tilt your chair back And when the joy you found becomes ungrounded And all the sound around you can't be hushed When you find you're sittin' in the darkness And darkness feels like all there ever was When your smile fades When your heart lacks Toss your care down Tilt your chair back
