shriekback - cradle song lyrics
sing a cradle-song now, as the light fades around us
and you breathe like the ocean, lying small in my arms
see it all in a moment – you so young and unclouded
shining bright as a lion – feel the motion of time
as the world rolls away from the sun.
i can feel your life burning – unlived moments within you
further than i can see…
may the fire be your friend and the sea rock you gently,
may the moon light your way – till the wind sets you free
i remember your face as you cried for the first time
the cold air of the world and the fierce light of day
and the cruel separation in a world washed with tears;
numbed with pain to unfeeling – may you hold to your truth
as you walk the dark night of unreason
the stone walls which surround us – may your spirit fly round them
like the wind from the sea…
may the fire be your friend and the sea rock you gently,
may the moon light your way – till the wind sets you free
may you never know hunger: may you love with a full heart –
the light stay in your eyes…
may the fire be your friend and the sea rock you gently,
may the moon light your way – till the wind sets you free
may the fire be your friend and the sea rock you gently,
may the moon light your way – till the wind sets you free
