Unhurried Journey
This song is inspired by a serene and beautiful scene created by artist Kristiana Parn, which reminds us to take our time and enjoy our journey. In the song, I muse about all of the beautiful things that continue to flow around us, slow and steady. I am joined by the inimitable Elizabeth Mitchell on vocals.

Trees sway, leaves change
Red, gold, yellow haze
One day, they’ll drift away
Rivers, below
Shimmering and aglow
Winding through fields as they flow
We’re on an unhurried journey,
journey through the breeze
Come on this unhurried journey
Unhurried journey with me
One day, we’ll stay
Arm and arm, by the bay
Watching those trees as they sway
And seasons may change
Snows will turn to rain
But memories will remain
We’re on an unhurried journey,
journey in the breeze
Come on this unhurried journey
Unhurried journey with me
