"Points of View"
Words & Music by James Nihan
The sun goes down, the day is through
Whippoorwill sings a song so blue
A hooting owl greets the moon
And I'd be crazy as a loon
To think that one should change its tune
The mountaintop, the valley too
Each one has a different view
From each other each one came
I've see them both and it's a shame
If I can't love what's not the same
Chorus:
We all have our points of view
See what we see and look what we do
If we just raise the blinds that darken our minds
And wash all the windows we're looking through
Then when you look at me and I look at you
Maybe we'll see something new
With our points of view
A field of corn parched and dry
We pray the rain won't pass us by
The soggy bog about to drown
We pray the sun comes pouring down
Rain or shine, it's all sacred ground
From time to time we're back to back
You say it's white, I say it's black
Then we see red, no hope in sight
We lie in bed, no kiss goodnight
Is it so wrong if we're both right?
Chorus:
We all have our points of view
See what we see and look what we do
If we just raise the blinds that darken our minds
And wash all the windows we're looking through
Then when you look at me and I look at you
Maybe we'll see something new
With our points of view
With our points of view
(Repeat Chorus)
