Outdoors
Song by: Jason Mraz

All day I’ve been inside

And I’ve got the feeling
I’m trapped between the walls
And underneath the ceiling
I feel a bit off track
And I’m trying to get back
Back in the cool, cool air where the sun is shinning
Nothing’s going to stop me
It’s all in the timing
It’s finally again my turn
It’s time to return
‘Cause I won’t stay inside no more
No more
I can’t wait to go
Outdoors
Well open up your door and be like me
Open up your door and then breathe free
And look at all the beauty you’ll feel
Loved, loved, loved, loved
Listen to the music of the wind and the brides sing
We’re just one big family
And all of nature deserves to be
Loved, loved, loved, loved,
Loved

So, I won’t stay inside no more

No more
It can’t wait, I’m sure
There’s need to run and hide
Let’s go explore
It feels so great let’s go outdoors

(Don’t cha do)

Everyone come on
come on out there
where the air is fresh and clear

So, I won’t stay inside no more

No more
It cannot wait
Let’s go out doors

Well, open up your door and be like me

Open up your door and then breathe free

And look at all the beauty and you’ll find

The earth and the sky is yours

So please go, there’s no need,

There’s no need to hide inside
Let’s go explore
This will, this will feel so great
Let’s go outdoors

And for everybody trying to save it
