Flying Dream 1

[Verse 1]

Flying dream one

Dead of the night when the prayer group was gone

Mum and my sisters all blissful and feathered

Candle wick swaddled my golden wee brother

Dad's across town tonight fixing the mirror

Shaking his head at a richer man's grammar

Swerving the creek as I slide to the steps

Tighten my dressing gown, mutter and merry

Then I lean forward and step into the air

[Chorus]

Step into the air

Like I'm fallen snow

Deep in my bones

Step into the air

Step into the air

[Verse 2]

Fireflies rise

Spiralling up 'til we blanket the skies

Every neighbourhood sleepy wee dreamers

Over the hills at the edge of my knowledge

Skimming the breakers deft as a petrol

Holcombe and Pendle, Nelson and Cole

Follow the landing light guiding me home

The house with the stairwell, I step into the air

[Chorus]

Step into the air

Like I'm fallen snow

Deep in my bones

Step into the air

Step into the air

[Vocalising]

[Chorus]

Like I'm fallen snow

Deep in my bones

Step into the air

Step into the air
