Apes In A Daydream

(album: Birdtalker - 2021)

Popping on the scene, eyes are open, the baby's talking
Growing wild, but he has to find out
What makes a thing worth crawling toward
In the morning, laughing, toddling, stacking rings on your wooden toy
But you'll have to find out how to keep your heart awake
For when it gets dark along the trail

Are we all just apes in a daydream with the heart of a child
Hoping for better life?
It could be
If I scream my joy like a sound
Will the echo lead me to a better way?

Little bit later, head still growing, the night is coming
Hey baby, it might be too late to find out
That you need a headlight, don't you?
Dive inside and find your joy, it could be hiding underneath
But it may be the way to find out which way your heart is pointing

Are we all just apes in a daydream with the heart of a child
Hoping for better life?
It could be
If I scream my joy like a sound
Will the echo lead me to a better way?

Where to now? Are you lost, baby child?
Where to now? Are you lost, baby child?
Where to now? Are you lost, baby child?
