Trembling

Who knows, but soon

In a too bright-lit room

Caul-shrouded journeys begin

The pause then the cry

The storm and the eye

A mother, a father, a child

Let a tear roll down

You’ve stared at the sun

And seen how it’s made

You can gasp, you can gasp, you can gasp

From this broken body

Trembling love comes afraid

So rest your head my love

I’m so proud of you

And I was scared too

I was scared too

Who knows quite how

We’ll muddle through now

When in us the world’s born anew

The joy and the hope

You dream and we cope

Moment by moment we grow

Let a tear roll down

You’ve reached in the earth and felt a heart beat there

You can laugh, you can laugh, you can laugh

From this broken body

Trembling love calls it’s name

So rest your head my love

I’m so proud of you

And I was scared too

Yes I was scared too
