about
The latest single off Simon's upcoming album "A Million Signs" (pre order at
www.simonhoskyn.com ). Released exactly three years from the day when Simon wrote most of it while trying to be as still as possible for 45 minutes because he was having a cardiac MRI.
This song is a sing-a-long celebration of the power of life and love, even in the midst of dark times and places.
It's free! Enjoy and pass it on!

lyrics
Spent too much time playing myself
In stories other people penned
But I was nothing if not true
When my hours came to an end
I dreamt a wave came off the sea
And swept you far away from me
And all the places we had lived
Just became places that you had been
You can see inside my heart
We may be living in the dark
But you can see inside my heart
Don’t build monuments to fear
Or worry if the casket fits
Life’s a mansion full of light
Death’s just a picture hanging in it
So hold on, hold on
You can see inside my heart
We may be living in the dark
But you can see inside my heart
You can see inside my heart
We may be years and worlds apart
But you can see inside my heart
