Meditation
2023©John Schofield

Once upon a broken heart
When my life had come apart
I searched for what could cure me
Was it a cottage by the sea?

What could mend the broken me
Where’s the magic that would be
Solace for my troubled mind
Was it a house amongst the pines?

Chorus:
I was looking in the wrong places
In the woods and by the sea
I had to look inside myself
To find that inner peace

Bridge:
I found my liberation in the world of meditation
Calm thoughts and contemplation
Brought sweet rejuvenation

Chorus:
I was looking in the wrong places
In the woods and by the sea
I had to look inside myself
To find that inner peace
