about

I wrote this beautiful song with my dear friend and amazing guitarist Aaron Rhoades around 3am on the steps of a house we were staying in in Cocoa Beach Florida. We were on tour together with another group and found ourselves sneaking off to create together. This is one of those songs that when you are done writing it, you just know it's destined to have wings to fly.

Music and Lyrics by Heidi Burson and Aaron Rhoades

lyrics

Baby the sun shines just a little bit brighter and the moon moves a little bit faster to get to where you are. Baby the trees sway just a little bit sweeter. It just feels good whenever you're around.

Well I walked up to that little path today. Put my hand out to where yours would be and when the ground got a little shaky 'neath my feet, I reached out; put my hands upon a tree.

Baby the sun shines just a little bit brighter and the moon moves a little bit faster to get to where you are. Baby the trees sway just a little bit sweeter. It just feels good whenever you're around.

Well it's not like me to have trouble finding words let alone one or two that may rhyme. But the essence of your presence is a blessing, never guessing in the message that you bring me over time.

Baby the sun shines just a little bit brighter and the moon moves a little bit faster to get to where you are. Baby the trees sway just a little bit sweeter. It just feels good whenever you're around.

It's not that I'm afraid of flying solo. I trust these wings to lift me up and fly. But I don't mind if you want to sit down beside me. Come on baby grab the wheel and drive.

Baby the sun shines just a little bit brighter and the moon moves a little bit faster to get to where you are. Baby the trees sway just a little bit sweeter. It just feels good whenever you're around.
