Oh water wash me clean
Cool my angering heart
Take me to the place I know
The centre of the start.
Oh water guide my hand
Show me where to go
I’ve lost my way in too many dreams
Is this how it feels to grow?
Oh water open my eyes
I’m afraid of what I will see
What lives in me and all of us
Teach me what it means to be free
Oh water still my mind
These storms are far too strong
I feel I’ve nothing to hang on to
This road feels far too long.
Oh water wash me clean
Cool my angering heart
Take me to the place I know
The centre of the start.
Oh water set me free
Oh water set me free

Don't Worry

Don’t worry my dear
Please don’t worry yourself
Don’t worry my dear
Please don’t worry yourself
Take courage and know
You’re held
Don’t worry my love
Please don’t worry your heart
Don’t worry my love
Please don’t worry your heart
Just breathe and know
You’re safe
Worry not, worry not
The sun hasn’t gone
Worry not, worry not
It’s sleeping behind the clouds
Don’t worry my sweet
Please don’t worry your soul
Don’t worry my sweet
Please don’t worry your soul
Let me hold you and know
I’m here
Worry not, worry not
The sun hasn’t gone
Worry not, worry not
It’s sleeping behind the clouds

More than Alright
03:51
|
|

Blue sky, shadows on the wall
A breeze blows and I know
We’ll be alright
Clear eyes still shine bright for you
My feet and I know
We’ll be alright
Alright or happy even
Quite bright or brilliant even
Tonight we’re smiling even
Though we feel we’re not allowed
To say how we feel out loud
I’ll say it now
We’ll be more than alright
Bicycles
Into cold water we fall
We shiver and I know
We’ll be alright
Rainclouds
Long mornings spent in bed
Drops are pouring and they say
We’ll be alright
Alright or happy even
Quite bright or brilliant even
Tonight we’re smiling even
Though we feel we’re not allowed
To say how we feel out loud
I’ll say it now
We are more than alright
We’re happy even
Quite bright, we’re brilliant even
Tonight we’re smiling even
Though we feel we’re not allowed
To say how we feel out loud
I’ll say it now
We are more than alright
I say
That life is for today
Who knows
What will happen on the way.
Alright
We’ll be more than alright
Alright
We are more than alright

Home
05:05

I laid my feet on moving ground
I laid my head on moving clouds
I laid my eyes on the world rushing by
And I keep moving on
These roots I have grow everywhere
Though I yearned for just one plot
A family in every place I’ve been
To warm me when I feel lost
And I keep moving on
And I keep moving on
You search for what you cannot hold
A feeling that aches the heart
A long life of searching for what you call home
And you keep moving on
You ask each day what you’re looking for
Unable to answer yourself
Like smoke through your fingers it slips away
The place you are longing for
And you keep moving on
You keep moving on
What we ask, we already know
What we seek has already been shown
What we long to hear has already been told
Our eyes have looked on so many shores
We’ve searched from sea to sky
Yet what we’ve wanted all along
Has been with us all this time
Home is where we are
Home is everywhere we are.

My Love
03:42
|
|
||
Your arms must ache my love
You’ve caught me in so many falls
You must feel weary my love
You’ve held me through so many storms
And if you’ll let me
Then I will catch you too
And for as long as you’ll let me
I’d like to love you
My heart feels full my love
With my hand resting in yours
I know there’s joy my love
It won’t be long till then
And if you’ll let me
Then I will make you smile
And for as long as you’ll let me
I’d like to love you.

Weight
02:43
|
|

Take this weight off my chest
It weighs heavy on my heart
See that bridge? It broke
And all this rubble weighs me down.
Take this cloud out of my mind
And the storms out of my head
See that bridge? It broke
And this fever makes me cold
Take this cloak off my head
It weighs heavy on my back
See that bridge? It broke
And darkness follows me down the track
I’m but one, with just two hands
It’ll take me oh so long
See that bridge to my heart?
It fell and crumbled to the ground
Take this weight off my chest
It weighs heavy on my heart
See that bridge? It broke
And all this rubble weighs me down.

There's Life Yet
03:32
|
|
||
Can’t shake these rainclouds
Chasing my tail
Lights in the sky dancing, tumbling over
Headstrong in blinkering my eyes
Only to find
There’s nowhere else to run
Hiding in passageways and shadows at night time
They frighten me
when I see the battle ground gives way beneath my feet
Only to find
there’s just one way to fall
What demons we hide in the aching tides of our tired vanity
The pretty little girl they turned to stone
Cold fear when we see our white flags are burning out our strength
No courage and we flee
Only to find
There’s nowhere else to run
What demons we hide in the aching tides of our tired vanity
How can we find, when we’re running blind
A taste of clarity
There’s light and love and life yet
Through pain and fear and darkness yet
There’s time and truth and courage yet
To meet our fear and darkness yet
There’s light and love and life yet
There’s light and love and life yet.

Prayer
03:52
|
|

May old wounds be healed
May our scars be soothed
May we learn to love what we’d rather throw away
And see beauty in our broken souls.
May our eyes be bright
May living not always be a fight
May we find our fire,
May it show us our way
And the beauty in our broken souls
We are learning day by day
Through all we’d like to throw away
We are learning day by day
May our hearts be soft
May we know that we do not know
May we lay down the baggage we no longer need
And see beauty in our broken souls.
May we grow old and wise
May our feet stay on the earth
And when the time has come for us to say our last goodbyes
We’ll see beauty in our broken souls.
We are learning day by day
Through all we’d like to throw away
We are learning day by day
Through all we’d like to throw away
We are learning day by day
May old wounds be healed
May our scars be soothed
May we lay down the baggage we no longer need
And see beauty in our broken souls
There is beauty in our broken souls
We’ll see beauty in our broken souls.
