about

The first track of In Nature, Inspired by growing up in California and living in Greece. Arcadian Life expresses a desire to live a carefree life in beautiful, wild places

lyrics

Jasmine in the morning, at first light
Violet lavender moon, relic of the night
A sunflower's rising to greet the light
While choirs of birds are singing farewell to the night

Arcadian Life
Everything is right
I'd leave here in a second
I wouldn't think twice

Dewey blossoms shining, in vibrant light
Fig tree feels weary, burdened by the nights
A lone raven soaring toward the sunrise
Crickets fall silent, waiting for the night

Arcadian Life
Everything is right
I'd leave here in a second
I wouldn't think twice
