"Wake Up Child" lyrics
Birdtalker & Joy Williams Lyrics
"Wake Up Child"
Wake up child, the summer's gone
Gotta fall in line, gotta stand tall
You've got to hide that glimmer you found
As you danced in the rainfall
Don't worry child, it was no dream
This mortal mind is a guilty thing
You're free to laugh with the giddy bird's call
And with the mountain sing
I can't remember what I'm raised to forget
The child inside
Truth, you know, never dies
Open your eyes
Open your eyes
Open your eyes
Come on, bruised and buried soul
You gotta hurry to this heavy yoke
You've got to let this frost settle on you
And forget the warmth of home
Awake, you endless fountain stream
There's so much more than what is seen
Go on and fan those embers to flame
Let it light the way you go
I can't remember what I'm raised to forget
The child inside
Truth, you know, never dies
Open your eyes
Open your eyes
Open your eyes

The National Parks - "1953" I found you in the summer heat, of 1953
Wise words from your father said

Henry Jamison - "Still Life" I was trying to find someone to love me
And then I did and she was dancing
Across the room with the lights on her half-closed eyes
So then I took another drink and stumbled
Across to her and said...
