Scott's View
What do you see when you look through your lens?
Do you see a crazy world that suddenly makes sense?
Peace and the calm of forever falling snow
That stops you in your tracks and directs you where to go
How much zoom before it’s just too much
You stop to put your camera down and reach your hand to touch
The beauty of a flower swelled with pinks that seem surreal
Your tender whisper and some trust make everything ideal
Tell me in a thousand words just what your pictures say
Is every photo like a map to where you are today?
Life’s bounces, friends and family all make up your truth
Fast forward add some lines that till don’t hide your youth
Show me what you see from the lens that you look through
What I’d give for just a glimpse into your private view
Do you recognize the love of a true friend?
A single-threaded heart that no one else can bend
Do you take a picture only your heart can understand?
Does it ever cross your mind, that give that’s in your hands?
With one finger and a push, you stop the Earth from spinning
And you capture that one moment of an end or a beginning
Do you see a crazy world that suddenly makes sense?
Peace and the calm of forever falling snow
That stops you in your tracks and directs you where to go
How much zoom before it’s just too much
You stop to put your camera down and reach your hand to touch
The beauty of a flower swelled with pinks that seem surreal
Your tender whisper and some trust make everything ideal
Tell me in a thousand words just what your pictures say
Is every photo like a map to where you are today?
Life’s bounces, friends and family all make up your truth
Fast forward add some lines that till don’t hide your youth
Show me what you see from the lens that you look through
What I’d give for just a glimpse into your private view
Do you recognize the love of a true friend?
A single-threaded heart that no one else can bend
Do you take a picture only your heart can understand?
Does it ever cross your mind, that give that’s in your hands?
With one finger and a push, you stop the Earth from spinning
And you capture that one moment of an end or a beginning
