lyrics

History is gathered into you, Dear
Millions of dawns and setting suns
If you could feel all you carry in your bones
If you could know of all the dawns to come

But you’re small
You’re the edge of knife
Fragile and tactile
and you mark for life
You’re small
You’re the moment in-between
All that was before you
And all that yet will be

History is gathered into you, Dear
The history of all that is to come
Shall burst out of your days, as the river runs
And rush into the age as the ocean

But you’re small
And your days are all you know
The past, your silent passenger
Hidden there below
You’re small
Your days are all you see
And futures like ghosts do hover
There above your dreams
