Reflections on the Mirth of Creativity

Woke up this mornin' there was somethin' dawnin' on me

Something I'd never seen, someone I'd never been

Came down for coffee and I could not find

Where I'd left my troubled mind

Opened the windows and the day blew in

It was fresh and new and it caressed my skin

It set me reelin', it was such a feelin'

That it made me smile for the first time in a long while

But don't ask me how

I just don't know

Don't ask me why

I've got nothin' to do but smile

And when I hit the street, felt light on my feet

Like if I triеd, I just might fly

And every single facе I see

Had a smile for me like I was royalty or somethin'

The sun was shinin' on the avenue

And the shadows knew just what to do

They kinda parted as I walked on by

And the clouds went off to some other part of the sky

But don't ask me how

I just don't know

Don't ask me why

I've got nothing to do but smile

When I walked up to a traffic light

And to my delight it was set just right

I didn't even have to break my pace

It was like I owned the whole damn place

And all the birds were singin' in the trees

I was hearin' some amazing melodies

Before I knew it, I was whistlin' along

So I sat right down and I wrote this song

But don't ask me how

I just don't know

Don't ask me why

I've got nothing to do but smile
