Back To Basics
I'm going back to basics
Tossing technology out the door
They say life is what you make it
I'm going to make it a natural world
The stars at night will be my candlelight
The open meadow my unmade bed
The Moonbeam will hold my calmest dreams
As I rest my weary head
When the morning peaks I'll have the mountain stream
To provide me with cool drink
And the berries from a nearby tree
Will be what I daily eat
I won't have any more deadlines
To stress my life upon
The only time that I will keep
Will be the season of the Sun
I will move when in the mood
Will be my whole new attitude
And sitting back relaxing
Will be the hardest thing I do
I'll carry on conversations
With the animals of the wild
I'm sure they'll make a lot more sense
Than those, I've left behind
If you think you'd like to join me
There's no need to pack a bag
I guarantee you'll be happy
With the little that you have
