This is actually a song by the band Renaissance featuring Annie Haslam on vocals with lyrics by Betty Thatcher. It comes off Renaissance’s 1973 album Ashes Are Burning and is one of their more well known early songs. Thatcher wrote the lyrics about the “joy of being alive and seeing the grass grow...
Come along with me
Down into the world of seeing
Come and you'll be free
Take the time to find the feeling
See everything on it's own
And you'll find you know the way
And you'll know the things you're shown
Owe everything to the day
(Chorus:)
See the carpet of the sun
The green grass soft and sweet
Sands upon the shores of time
Of oceans mountains deep
Part of the world that you live in
You are the part that you're giving
Come into the day
Feel the sunshine warmth around you
Sounds from far away
Music of the love that found you
The seed that you plant today
Tomorrow will be a tree
And living goes on this way
It's all part of you and me
(Chorus 2x)
See the carpet of the sun
See the carpet of the sun
See the carpet of the sun
See the carpet of the sun
Annie Haslam released Carpet of the Sun on Mon Oct 01 1973.
