AFTER THIS DAY
Nothing will be the same after this day
The words of David came through
As if it were your voice
How could I not hear
How could I not hear it
So pure and strong
It will remind me
Remind me
A strange mix stuck in my chest
Full stretched feathers heavy to rest
Wings round your neck
Keep you safe
First time I've prayed
First time I've prayed
And I will sing
Over your body as you leave
The light is in your children
You didn't know it came to us
It crossed every water
I had words before
They disappeared
Nothing will be the same after this day
Nothing will be the same after this day
And I will sing
Over your body as you leave

You are for me
This I can't explain
There's not much more left to say

HEARTBEAT
The teachings handed down
From child to child to child
One steps out to find the light
Another spark dies
They are married sixty years
Sixty years of push and pull
They are married sixty years
Sixty years of push and pull
Heartbeat on wood
Heartbeat on wood
The glass has frosted over
All they see is night
The world is full of weeping
Unquiet in its sleep
Others dance and jump the waves
Muffled sorrow above
Drenched in watery hills
Floating in love
You know I love you dearer than the day before
She looks to the window
He leans against the door
Heartbeat on wood
Heartbeat on wood
The tears fall down
He can't look from up here
I'm not better but I'm trying now
I'm not better but I'm trying
Blinded by the ether
Losing and learning
Clutching at hindsight
And losing it all
Keep my manner safe when it stays don't go cold
Keep my manner safe when it stays don't go cold
Keep my manner straight when it strays don't go cold
Keep my manner safe when it stays don't go cold
She looks to the window
They've been married sixty years
He leans against the door
They've been married sixty years
