Thank u Ed!!!

lyrics

I was a seedling and you drove me home
When I needed to be planted alone
My mother’s windowsill buried in stone
It’s been two years

I have no memory of being eighteen
Except for the melancholy of my dreams
Carved out from under mountains to be seen
Snow angel tears

One day I’ll know if I’ve finally made up
For the times my survival depended on luck
Sprinkle the petals and find yourself stuck
Can we laugh about it

I’ve grown to hold up the sun with my arms
And recognise when it is cause for alarm
The season of harvest will do you no harm
But I can’t see without it

May I leave the tapestries of time
May I stitch my name into the rhyme
May I stitch my bloodline on my skin
May I never view your choice as sin
May I greet the winter as a saviour
May I see god in your worst behaviour
May I need you every year you hide
May I leave you for a better tide
