about

Another song that formed itself as I was humming and strumming a guitar into the voice memo on my phone. The words came a bit later but the chords and melody just kind of appeared. The words are a stream of consciousness collage of childhood memories and the feeling of being far, far away from the ones you love but having the ability to stay connected energetically.

lyrics

Every time I see the sun burst through the prism, making rainbows
It reminds me I'm a child of the universe seeking miracles
Every time I see the rain fall on the front lawn in the afternoon
It reminds of the time my sister and I sat on the windowsill

With our legs hanging, out after the rain fell and the sun came out
And the sky was yellow and the air was earthy and the grass sparkling
Every time it reminds me of that time when I was a child of the universe

And so are you
All our friends will be here soon
'Cos our love, it is our guiding light
These shining silver stars, how they smile
Every night we dream of flying to be
With the ones we love
And so we dream

Every night I hear the echo of the canyon through my window
Making shadows of a monster within a monster that could make me a monster
But alas my little rainbow, she is watching from the prism in my eyes
Laughing gently like a poplar tree in the cold, cold wind on the Monaro Plains

Sweet little echo of a shadow of a whisper in the blood stream of this child of the universe

All our friends will be here soon
'Cos our love, it is our guiding light
These shining silver stars, how they smile
Every night we dream of flying to be
With the ones we love
And so we dream

And so are you

Shining silver stars

And so we dream

And so we dream
