"Her Hands Were Leaves" lyrics
"Her Hands Were Leaves"
I see my brother, he is walking in the sun
His back is bare, he carries no burden for anyone
I see the island, a silver line
Brother, how you shine
And all around the light
And all around the light
Now I see my father, he's so small against the sky
The child, the tree, the shadow is on his eye
He doesn't know who he's supposed to be
Father, you are free
And all around the light
And all around the light
Now I hear my mother, she is crying on the stair
Her hands are leaves, the light is in her hair
And as she prays, she thinks that no one heard
Mother, you are a bird
Mother, you are a bird
And all around the light
And all around the light
And all around the light
Now all around the light

I guess you don't want me to repeat it
