lyrics
Bleary eyes
And something passed me by
Passed me by
It had feathers blowin’ around
And I wasn’t sure if there was something wrong
Something wrong
Or there had been until now
Stay kind as the spindle unwinds
Every one of us the same
Spinning blind forward in time
Know you’re lucky and be brave
I know a girl who holds a steady calm
Steady calm
And she lives in her own way
She tell’s me about the good in slowing down
Slowing down
And she wants me to be brave
Stay kind as the spindle unwinds
Every one of us the same
Spinning blind forward in time
Know you’re lucky and be brave
The sum of all the suffering I’ve seen
That I’ve seen
Comes to visit me sometimes
And something passed me by
Passed me by
It had feathers blowin’ around
And I wasn’t sure if there was something wrong
Something wrong
Or there had been until now
Stay kind as the spindle unwinds
Every one of us the same
Spinning blind forward in time
Know you’re lucky and be brave
I know a girl who holds a steady calm
Steady calm
And she lives in her own way
She tell’s me about the good in slowing down
Slowing down
And she wants me to be brave
Stay kind as the spindle unwinds
Every one of us the same
Spinning blind forward in time
Know you’re lucky and be brave
The sum of all the suffering I’ve seen
That I’ve seen
Comes to visit me sometimes
