about

During my final few weeks living in Toronto, I was in the middle of a song writing workshop. I rented a tiny little writing studio out for myself and had online meetings with other writers. I went out for a walk one bright sunny afternoon, thinking about all of the things I was going to do once I moved, and how it was finally time to leave this big city...but as I walked around, everything good about it was amplified. Pulling me back in, charming me...and I realized I wasn't ready to say goodbye.

lyrics

New Light

I've been waiting so long to get out of here
fast forward this hard town, it's been a hopeless year
Boxes are all packed up, taped and ready to go
then I feel the warm sun pour through my window

On a day like today, your colours shine so bright
did you always charm this way, or am I seeing you in a new light?

Out for one last walk outside found a park I'd never seen
the bridge over the railway line spills into green
A smile from a passerby, children running free
soaring views of skyline, laughter in the breeze

On a day like today, your colours shine so bright
Looking at you I could stay, seeing you in a new light

A new light, mmm, a new light

On a day like today, your colours shine so bright
did you always charm this way, or am I seeing you in a new light?
