Indeed it is, as are all Acoustic Chorale tracks! Sooner is a personal favorite of mine, perfect for listening to on a sunny summer day!
Welcome to the forum, by the way. ;)
Hi CT, you're our 4000th member, which is awesome in itself. Welcome :)
Has anyone ever figured out the correct lyrics to this song?....specifically that 1st verse?
tom eisey transcribed and I think it's dead on. that's the version that's up over at the "other lyrics" thread:
start out early in the mornin
they get up way before the sun
with flowin lights the city bustles
it truly grins for everyone
take their little Jim to Xavier
take him to slowly to the show
and in my eyes they show the loveliness
that brings me back to you so much
Sooner or later they come to see you
feed you power in the yellow sun
for all your days they keep you movin
quick as lightnin they'll be gone
i know the soul needs wine and kindness
i know the eye needs lots of fun
i know these things will come to see you
to prove it's true i'll tell everyone
Sooner or later they'll come to see you
and feel your power in the yellow sun
to all your days I wish you blindness
from all the evils in the world
Sooner or later I'll come to see you
feel your power in the yellow sun..
