about

A song with a very personal meaning.

lyrics

"What's the update?"
"My dear girl, it's gotten worse than you'd think
Your brother - he's been by
He's had his cry with me at the sink
Nothing's worse for me than retelling this news
But I know that you're strong
And in the end you'll know what to do."
It's not even real yet for my sister
And at her age, how could it ever ever be

So quick to tell you that you're grown
Only I can say that for me
An old soul, yeah maybe, but in my bones
Suck a trauma dry of meaning
So quick you're with us and then you're gone
Dismiss the sadness and breathe
I grew up when I felt your pulse
Grew up when I held your dead body
I love you
I love you
So quick you're with us and then you're gone
Dismiss the panic and breathe
I grew up when I heard your voice
Grew up when you said you were leaving

"Kids it's time for me to cross over the stream
To the other side, where I'll be waiting
When you meet me."


So quick to tell you that you're grown
Only I can say that for me
An old soul, yeah maybe, but in my bones
Suck a trauma dry of meaning
So quick you're with us and then you're gone
Dismiss the sadness and breathe
I grew up when I felt your pulse
Grew up when I held your dead body
I love you
I love you
So quick you're with us and then you're gone
Dismiss the panic and breathe
I grew up when I heard your voice
Grew up when you said you were leaving

It's not even real yet for my sister
And at her age, how could it ever ever be
"My love for you could fill the cosmos
And I'm amazed
At how proud you've all made me."
