Flying Dream 1

(앨범: Flying Dream 1 - 2021)

Flying dream 1
Dead of the night when the prayer group was gone
Mum and my sisters all blissful at feather
Candlewick swaddled my golden wee brother
Dad's across town tonight, fixing The Mirror
Shaking his head at a richer man's grammar
Swerving the creakers, I slide to the stairs
Tighten my dressing gown
Mutter a Mary
Then I lean forward and step into the air

Step into the air
Like I've always known
Deep in my bones
Step into the air
Step into the air

Fireflies rise
Spiralling up till we blanket the skies
Every neighbourhood's sleepy wee dreamers
Over the hills at the edge of my knowledge
Skimming the breakers, deft as a petrel
Holcombe and Pendle, Nelson and Colne
Follow the landing lights guiding me home
The house with the stair where I step into the air

Step into the air
Like I've always known
Deep in my bones
Step into the air
Step into the air

Like I've always known
Deep in my bones
Step into the air
Step into the air
