Somersaults

The centre of all that we pictured framed by the windows of your beautiful eyes
In the middle of all that we know now that we're waiting for spring to arrive
Waiting for you now is like holding our breath in a storm holding onto something warm at the thought of you
A little kick inside when we're singing you to sleep at night a little somersault inside of you
We're listening to your heartbeat and the drumbeat of your father's song
And your mother is bearing you while you're growing till the day that you're born
Waiting for you now is like holding our breath in a storm holding onto something warm at the thought of you
A little kick inside when we're singing you to sleep at night a little somersault inside of you

Branches

Folding my heart like paper and tuck it away for later
Until i can slowly function more than i need to love again
Im holding this branch like I'm holding the answer
Im free as a bird flying over the ocean
The soft morning light between us tracing the lines of our favourite words
You could hold my gaze forever like sun holds the earth just pull me closer
Im holding this branch like I'm holding the answer
Im free as a bird flying over the ocean
I'll plant my heart in the earth I'll watch it grow and breath the air

Four Arms

My shoulders will carry you over and anywhere you
This is the long road and we're on the same path
I'll fold in half break my back to get you there safe
These four arms were made for you and the cycle wont end with you
This is the long road and we're on the same path
I'll fold in half break my back to get you there safe

Its a wonderful life

If every time a bell rings you get your wings i'll make sure i play my part
White feathers rise as wings beat down like light through a break in the clouds
Hold my hand feel the gaze of a man in love
Over airwaves above you spread your wings flying high as you break from the ground
Once whispered and traced i'll whisper no more my lungs fill I'm ready to shout
Hold my hand feel the gaze of a man in love
Of a man in love with you, yeah

Origami

I tried to make a paper rose one sweet enough to make you cry
But i failed paper doesn't smell that good
I tried to make a paper swan he could have swam across the water
But i failed paper doesn't float that well
I should have found a real life rose it could have smelled just like summer
But i failed i am still a kid
I should have found a real life swan he could have swam across the water
But i am still a kid and it shows
Folding paper won't make it any better forming birds and flowers
Fold one round over and over and over seven times

Bring you home
03:30
|
|||
|
We can't begin to imagine what the feeling brings
I guess overwhelmed and half as much again
To bring you into the world and bring you home with us
Pressed against our skin for the first time in your life
You won't remember this but we'll never forget
To bring you into the world and bring you home with us
We're counting down the hours now till you are here with us
Life will never be the same again we have a new purpose
To bring you into the world and bring you home with us

Its too late for me I'm caught in the system now
Its too late for me I've gotta kill time somehow
Its too late for me I'm caught in the system now it hurts
Its too late for me I've gotta kill time somehow but how
How do i how do i how do i escape from here

Scotland
02:39
|

|
The sound of the heartbeat in my ear as my head goes down and i think about my fear
I want my heart to the feel the freedom i feel when i walk the shores and mountains of home
Hold your head up now don't let them weigh it down your freedom is inside you and you don't need a crown
Im standing i'll never kneel for you, no better or worse we're just the same as you

Slow right down
02:27
|
|||
|
We roll down this old road you slept right through it
The haze of the summer sun we breeze right through here
Don't be so scared to slow right down
I cut this grass down you planted flowers we feel the earth move beneath our sandals
Don't be so scared to slow right down
Slow right down

Little dove
03:50
|
|||
|
When you sleep we lay our heads beside you in the deep and the dark of the night we hold you
When you feed in in the arms of the mother that loves you and you need your father to be there and hold you
Little cub rest and the world will wait for you little dove fly to the arms of the ones who love you
