The Rays Shine Down
Tune: Power of Two (Indigo Girls)
The rays shine down on the nest of comfort, warming all that lies within
The young bird fears to venture out, caught up in its feelings of doubt
The time has come to learn and grow, found at Tapawingo
‘Cause here’s a place with the security of living, woven in with tender feeling
CHORUS:
Spread your wings and fly, don’t be afraid of soaring high
When you look down, upon Tap the memories in your mind they will unwrap
If in time the winds push you down, your family at Tap is on the ground
To catch you when you feel the need to rest
Tapawingo’s love gives back from the nest
The bird here learns to look in herself, gaining independence
The lessons here grow day by day, knowing that in time she can’t stay
(oh the gray and blue) The gray and blue add competition, she finally understands tradition
Her wings grow stronger as the days move on, her free of flying soon gone
She now reflects on the lessons she has learned, ready to explore the world
It’s time to leave but she’ll always remember her home of Tap
home of Tap
home of Tap
CHORUS
