about

Inspired by waking up every morning in an average summer at Green Lake. I won't tell ya which Green Lake because I don't want to spoil the goodness of it with too many footprints. It's a hell of a place to see the stars after the sunshine disappears. It's my ultimate favorite place to be on this ravaged planet. And long live Jack! The music video for Moment was filmed at the lake and features Jack's son, Sean.
Here's the video: youtu.be/lCgWZ7APM6M

lyrics

MOMENT
A gentle wind is blowin' in off the water
The sun's coming up above the mountain
I just got everything I've always wanted
And boy, let me tell ya, it's a great day to be alive.

There's no better place to be than up in the country
Where the bright city lights don't hide the stars
Nothing makes me happier than a midnight fire on Jack's beach
Remember when those northern lights were dancin'

Green Lake in the summertime is amazing
I die and go to heaven every morning
It's a feeling to which no words can do justice
It's everything good and pure if you let it be

I sit among the trees and sing my songs
Letting the wind carry them across the sky
I wish I could stay right here forever
But every moment is a moment out of my control.
