lyrics

In the place where things come true
I can see you
like a rainbow meets the sky
I am holding you like a butterfly / lullaby

And all I wanted to be true
when I was small
And all the light in your hair
is sparkling for all the world
(to me)

And I know I'm getting things wrong
somehow
like signing off and on
And still you hold me like a song
that I'm always getting wrong

And we're all flying down from the sky
And you see with eyes that you've been given
Not the ones you wanted to light
by writing a thousand songs and
singing them all this time
still I don't feel the kind of thing that I am seeking
so I've learned
learned to fly
like a pegasus or pony
do unicorns have wings?
well I guess they don't
and all the things I've gotten wrong
like this song I'm trying for you

Do you know that it's all always coming true?

Growing over and under at the same time
Floating over and under at the same time
And I'm like a bird that wants to fly away with you
But away from you and to you
I don't know which way to choose...


*FYI this song was improvised from a crowdsourced collection of lyric/topic suggestions* (primary suggestion being unicorns - hence the unicorn lyric fail, because I kept talking about flying away, before realizing unicorns don't have wings...) https://youtu.be/2QiOiBgjeCc
