Fara Palmer: Music

• MP3 play whole song, hi-fi (broadband)
• MP3 play whole song, lo-fi (modem)

This song was originally written and composed by Chuck Brickley for his wife KIM (lucky lady!! and yes, a Beautiful Spirit).
The recording of this song was a wonderful experience. I got to practice this song with the Vancouver Symphony Orchestra, and then later the record company decided that the orchestra enhanced the song. So the orchestra you are hearing on this song, is the one and only- Vancouver Symphony Orchestra.

BEAUTIFUL SPIRIT, by Chuck Brickley.

Oh, and did I mention that you are my guiding light?
More than once your smile has saved my life
And so, it's my intention to stay by your side tonight
Let me dry your eyes
I know you'll be all right

'cause your beautiful spirit shines through
whenever i'm near it, my spirit shines too
oh, your beautiful spirit rings true
and everyone who hears it will always love you

Who has suffered more and deserved the pain less than you
Still you have kind words for everyone
How could we adore you more than we already do?
If this life is a trial, you've already won

(repeat chorus)

Hey, it's okay to shy away
You don't have to admit it (but it's true!)
This world's a way sweeter place for having you in it

you're beautiful spirit shines through
whenever i'm near it my spirit shines too
oh, your beautiful spirit rings true
and everyone who hears it lives to be near it
oh, beautiful spirit
we'll always love you
