lyrics

Little bug crawling on a rusty leaf
With a flash, big thunder bring rain
The whip the gust the wet are too much
Little bug’s washed away

Little spill overfilled your cup of dreams
Liquid dreams in a pool at your feet
The ocean arrives you’re swept in the tide
Miles and miles in the stream

You can race for the sun
Close your eyes til morning comes
Disconnect your head - back to sleep
The end is the beginning everything is spinning
Wake up and see

The queen arrives hazel eyes on new year’s eve
The milky way in her chilled champagne
The hours they slide she’s there by your side
Her lips taste of stardust and rain

You can ride into the sun
With so much to do undone
Disconnect your head - sip your tea
The end is the beginning everything is spinning
Wake up and see

The universe in the eyes of a newborn
Little lamps little room soft light
A million stars shine on her tonight
Baby she’s safe in the sky
Baby she’s warm tonight
Baby she’s fine
