lyrics

Quiet and warm, the setting sun
Shines on my belly as you twist and turn
Holding my hand to feel your glow
Soon to become a light of your own
I’ve been waiting for you for so long
Watching for signs of your life growing stronger
From two blue lines to a beating heart
Holding all the possibilities in my outstretched arms

And I can’t shake the feeling I’ve been here before
There’s echoes in all these corridors
Different colours, different demands
Same land

Sitting under the apple tree
Dappled sun kissing my swollen feet
The light has tender hold of me
I’ve never breathed it so deep

I’ve forever been a bow and arrow pulled back tight
Holding all the longing of the flight
Now it’s time to let go
Now it’s time to give birth to life
